Hi everyone!

We have three cute guest teachers, Babi, Kevin and Hannah from Brazil today.

They are going to teach you some Japanese slang.

******

Maggie has been tweeting buzz words or colloquial expressions on Twitter for quite a while (so you should follow us!→ Maggie Sensei Twitter), but she hasn’t made a slang lesson here since 2015!

So today we are going to learn a lots of new slang words and colloquial expressions. Most of these come from mainly from 2018* ~2020, so they’re super fresh! 

(*Some of them could be earlier than 2018)

Note: Many of them have spread from JK (a slang for 女子高校生 = joshi koukousei = high school girls ) in social media and the speed of the changing trends is very quick! That means even relatively new slang words may be outdated in a few months. Some of them, however, may survive for generations to come. Time will tell.

Anyway, lots of these words are just for writing in social media so they might sound strange if you use them in your speech.

Anyway, studying slang words and observing the trends is always fun! I hope you enjoy this list!

***

★ It has been trendy to shorten words to communicate in short message or LINE message in the past few years.

For example:

了解 = りょうかい = ryoukai = OK/ I got it.

りょ ( = ryo)

And some even shorten this and write

⏩ り ( = ri)

まじ / マジ?= Maji? = (slang word) Really? Seriously?

ま?/ マ? = Ma?

それ、まじ/マジ? = Sore, maji?

= Are you serious? / Is that right? (For what you just heard or read)

⏩ そマ? ( = so ma?) 

これ、まじ/マジ?= Kore, maji?

= Is this real? / Really? (for the information /news that what you just read)

⏩ こマ? ( = ko ma? 

よろしく(お願いします)= yoroshiku (onegai shimasu.)

= Thank you/Thank you in advance/ Nice to meet you. / Please do ~.

⏩ よろ = yoro

★ Using alphabet letters

This is for writing only. You change some hiragana letters to alphabet letters.

For example しい = shii sounds like “C” / = i  or いい = ii sounds like “E

so instead of typing these words all in hiragana, you write:

おかしい = okashii

おかC = okashii =  Funny!

むずかしい = muzukashii

⏩ むずかC = muzukashii = Hard/Tough/Difficult!

かわいい = kawaii

かわE = kawaii = Cute!

かっこいい = kakkoii

⏩ かっこE = kakkoii =  Cool!

すごい = sugoi

すごE (←すごい = sugoi) = Awesome! / Great!

* わくわくする = wakuwaku suru

wkwkする = wkwk suru = to be excited/thrilled /psyched

You might see it with emoji like this

* (*・ω・*)wkwk

* KP = 乾杯 = かんぱい = kanpai = Cheers! 🍻

* MJK =  マジか?= Majika? = Are you serious?/ Seriously?

* PP (pp)

the verb form:

* ppになる = pp ni naru to get a little panicked (only for writing)

It is from a slang word  プチパニック = puchi panikku

プチ ( = puchi) is from a French word,  “petit” = small/a little

パニック ( = panikku) is “panic”.

★ Using numbers


These hashtags are often used on Twitter/Instagram.

* #3150 

→From サイコー (最高 = さいこう = saikou ) = Awesome! /Great!/ It’s the best

* #397

→From→サンキューな = sankyuu na = Thank you!

LOL

I already explained the following in my previous slang lesson, but we can review.

lol/So funny!

1)(笑) = wara : You just use one kanji 笑う = わらう = warau = to laugh

2)  w / www….

(from the first letter of romaji for  笑う = “W“arau

= to laugh  / 笑い = “W”arai = laughter)

3)  = くさ = kusa = (literal meaning) grass

(Because the letter “w” looks like grass.)

4) 草生えた = くさはえた = kusahaeta

= (literal)  grass has grown / grass grew

variations:

* 草生える = kusahaeru = grass grows

Now let me add the following three expressions for “lol

* 草原 = sougen = the literal meaning “grass field/prairies/grassland”. It has

森生える = mori haeru = (the literal meaning) “woods/forestgrow(s).

As you can see, both 草原 ( = sougen) and ( = mori) have lots of “grasses” which can be represented an alphabet “w” so they both means “funny”  or something makes you laugh.

 

* 腹筋崩壊 = ふっきんほうかい = fukkin houkai

腹筋 = ふっきん = fukkin = abdominal muscle + 崩壊=ほうかい = houkai = ruined completely, collapse.

→You laugh so much that one’s abdominal muscles get ruined.

**

OK, now I will give you bunch of slang expressions in あいうえお ( = a i u e o ) order.

I explained a casual expression, あざっす = Azassu = Thank you! in my 若者言葉 ( = Wakamono kotoba), Young people’s Japanese lesson 10 years ago.

It’s a short way to say:

ありがとうございます = Arigatou gozaimasu.

The past tense of あざっす = Azassu is

あざした = Azashita = Thank you very much.

From ありがとうございました = Arigatou gozaimashita.

The new versions of “Thank you!/Thanks! ” are,

*あざお = Azao

*あざ = Aza

*あざまる = Azamaru

まる ( = maru) means “” = maru = the Japanese punctuation, period.

This is slightly outdated but there was a trend to attach 水産 = すいさん after まる  ( = maru) in 2018 because it sounds similar to an izakaya chain called: 磯丸水産 = いそまるすいさん= Isomura Fishery

 :rrrr: あざまる水産 = Azamaru Suisan = Thank you!

* おはまる = ohamaru = Good morning! (From おはよう= ohayou = Good morning)

* よいちょまる = yoichomaru = Something has good vibes. / It sounds nice. / I’m happy, I feel good.

**

* あたおか/ アタオカ = ataoka = crazy

It is an abbreviation of  頭(が)おかしい= atama (ga) okashii = crazy

adjective form: あたおか(な) + noun = ataoka(na) + noun = crazy ~

adverb from: あたおかに = ataokani = to do something crazy

Ex. あたおかすぎる = ataoka sugiru = too crazy

Ex. あたおか~ = Ataokaa = That’s crazy!

*あ…(察っし)= Ah, (sasshi) = (For writing)  Oh…, I get it now. /  Oh, I see…/ I get what you mean. / Ah, that’s why../ I can tell. (Implying “Say no more. I know..”)

You write this when you can assume the situation or someone’s feelings,

When someone post a picture of their pet, you may see these words.

These are not typos.

**

When you talk about some possibility you use the pattern

あり or なしよりのありor なし~

= ari or nashi + yori no + ari or nashi

In this case より ( = yori) means “ close to ~

あり ( = ari): possible

なし ( = nashi): there is no possibility

So when you think about the possibility of something happening, you you have consider whether it’s なし ( = nashi) impossible or あり ( = ari)

なし ( = nashi) ———-<—————————>———あり ( =ari)

* ありよりのあり/ アリよりのアリ

= ari yori no ari

= Absolutely yes/ By all means. / Quite possible

* なしよりのなし/ナシよりのナシ

= nashi yori no nashi

= Absolutely not. / No way! / It’s not gonna happen for sure./Not a chance.

* ありよりのなし /アリよりのナシ

= ari yori no nashi

=  That’s possible but not sure.

(From the word リピート = ripiito = to repeat→リピする = ripisuru)

= to order/buy something again, to repeat doing ~

* おまいう/おまゆう = omaiu / omayuu

= From お前が言うな  = Omae ga iu na ( rough male speech)

= Look who’s talking! / You should talk!

(You have no right to criticize or say so  ~ because you are guilty as well.)

Since it has お前 ( = omae), it will be very rude to use it with someone you don’t know, someone older or superior.

* おまいう案件 = omaiu anken = None-of-your-business matter. / Stay away from this topics because you are guilty as well.

〜おわ= owa = finished ~

It is from

You write it when you need someone’s attention especially when you get bored.

You also use かまちょ ( = kamacho) to describe people who always need someone’s attention.

* 神ってる = カミッテル = kamitteru = to be on a roll / Great! / Awesome

Now this is one of the buzz words in 2016 but you still see the word with   ( = kami)

The real meaning of ( = kami) is “God” but you describe someone/something divine or out of this world.

Ex. ケイさん、神!

= Keisan, Kami!

And when you see some quality is incredible you attach ( = kami).

Ex. 大雨でぴえん 🥺

ぱおん ( = paon) is also the sound that an elephant makes “Pawoo!”, some people use the emoticon of elephant. 

*ぴえん🥺こえてぱおん🐘 = pien koete paon

It might be easier to explain this if we look at the kanji origins.

「ぴえん」超えて「ぱおん」

 = “pien” koete “paon”

= The literal meaning: “Paon” passing “Pien”

So the degree of one’s sad or upsetting situation is worse than just sobbing.

to be very sad, disappointed or to be suffering because of something that happened

variation:

*ぴえん🥺通り越してぱおん🐘

**

* ~ み = ~ mi

Maggie made a lesson on the difference between さ &  み ( = sa & mi) in past.

When you nominalize an adjective, you use with ( = sa) or ( = mi)

 ( = mi) is used to describe the state of something from a subjective point of view. (It sometimes involves a speaker’s feelings).

面白い ( = omoshiroi) interesting

面白み ( = omoshiromi) the quality of interestingness /something to attract people

The words that you can use ( = mi) is limited but in slang usage, it is more free. You even make a verb with ( = mi).

The common pattern is

~ = ~ mi   (You make an adjective to a noun and then use it as an adjective)

And when you emphasize it, you use the following patterns:

~ is very ~

⏩ ~みが深い = ~ mi ga fukai

⏩ ~みが強い = ~ mi ga tsuyoi

⏩ ~みがすごい = ~ mi ga sugoi

The verb わかる = wakaru = understand

→change it to a slang noun form わかりみ ( = wakarimi) the way one understands, understanding + 深い ( = fukai) deep

Ex. わかりみが深い = wakarimini ga fukai

I totally understand/ I can totally relate to ~

Ex. わかりみ~! = Wakarimii! = I understand you.

Ex. わかりみが強い= Wakarimini ga tsuyoi = I can totally understand you.

* 美味しみが深い = oishimi ga fukai = yummy/very tasty

* やばみ = yabami = from an slang word やばい=ヤバイ= yabai

It is one of the slang words that can be used for many different situations

(dangerous, outrageous, great, yummy, bad, weird, etc.)

Ex.やばみが強い・深い = yabami ga tsuyoi / fukai

= very/really/super dangerous, awesome, delicious, etc.

* つらみ = tsurami = from an adjective  辛い = つらい = tsurai = hard, tough

Ex.つらみが深い = tsurami ga fukai = So hard

**

* むりぽ = muripo = No way!/ I can’t take it./ Impossible

*陰キャ/インキャ = inkya = otaku, introverted, geeky not communicative, gloomy, quiet + person/personality

From 陰気な = inkina = gloomy,  キャラ ( = kyara) personality

* よき = yoki = good

Note: よき ( = yoki) is old Japanese which means よい ( = yoi) / いい( = ii)

You are supposed to use it with a noun.

よき ( = yoki) + noun

Ex. よき日  (literal)= yoki hi = good day 

Ex. 今日もよき日を! 

= Kyou mo yoki hi wo!

= May you have a good day.

It is an old literary expression, so you usually only hear it in formal speech, but colloquially, you can use it casually. So instead of saying いいね (= iine) Good!/Nice! / Great!, you can use the following.

Ex. よき歌!= Yoki uta! = Nice song!

Ex. よき! = Yoki! = Great!/ Nice!

Ex. よきよき = Yoki yoki = Great!!

Ex. よき甘さ = Yoki amasa = The sweetness is just perfect.

Ex. よきこと = Yoki koto = That’s a good thing. / That’s nice.

Ex. どちらでもよき = Dochirademo yoki = Either way is fine.

Advanced? のき = noki = Someone created the opposite of よき ( = yoki) with English word,

No”. “ = No” + ( = ki)

Ex. よき?のき?どっち?

= Yoki? Noki? Docchi?

= Yes or No? Which one?

      3 = san + 9 = kyuu = san kyuu = It sounds like “Thank you”
      + 7 = nana = na = Thank you na!

      Or use the part of the sound
      3 = sa(n) + 1 = i(chi ) + 5 = go→ko + 0 = o = o = sa i ko o
