「ちわっす！」
= Chiwassu!
= Hey!/ Yo!
Hi everyone!
I’m Cookie. Sorry that our site has been down. We are working hard to fix it right now.
OK, Maggie Sensei once taught you female speech.
I am a boy so today I will teach you some male speech.
As many of you know, there is a difference between female speech and male speech in Japanese.
Male speech in Japanese is known as 男言葉= おとこことば= otoko kotoba
Female speech is known as 女言葉 = おんなことば= onna kotoba
Maggie Sensei has been avoiding teaching you male speech. Why? Because male speech is rough and vulgar.
She didn’t want to teach you bad words.
And of course, it’s because she is a LADY…(→She told me to emphasize this point.) and so is Yukari (→Yukari twisted my arm to add this line, too.)
But you hear or read male speech in Japanese daily life, TV drama, anime or comic books. So it’s useful to learn some.
So here we go!
Warning: I will not teach “curses” but this lesson contains a lot of vulgar expressions. I would avoid using them even if you are a tough “macho” type guy.
And be careful! Never use any of these with your superiors (especially in business situations) even with other men.
Note: M: male speech
★personal pronoun
1st personal pronoun singular “I”
* 僕 = ぼく = boku (safe to use)
* 俺 = おれ = ore
1st personal pronoun plural “We”
* 僕達 = ぼくたち = bokutachi (safe to use)
* 俺等 = おれら = orera
2nd personal pronoun singular “You”
* お前 = おまえ = omae
* おめえ= omee
* てめえ= temee
2nd personal pronoun plural “You”
* お前ら = おまえら= omaera
* おめえら= omeera
* てめえら = temeera
3rd personal pronoun singular “he,she, this guy, that guy”
*こいつ = koitsu = this person (referring to someone close)
* あいつ = aitsu= he / she / that person / that guy (referring to someone far)
* 奴 = やつ = yatsu = he / she / that person / that guy
3rd personal pronoun plural “They”
*こいつら = koitsura = these people (referring to someone close)
* 連中 = れんちゅう = rennchuu = they
* あいつら = aitsura = they
* 奴ら= やつら = yatsura = they
★Question
This is a typical mistake that beginner learners make in Japanese.
When you start learning Japanese, you learn to add か ( = ka) at the end of a sentence to make questions.
Ex. A: (あなた*は）マギー先生ですか？
= (Anata wa) Maggie sensei desu ka?
= Are you Maggie Sensei?
(Note: In Japanese you often omit the subject, and you also often omit あなた ( = anata) sounds cold or distant.)
Ex. B: もう朝ごはんをたべましたか？
= Mou asagohan wo tabemashita ka?
= Did you already have breakfast?
Ex. C: 美味しいですか？
= Oishii desu ka?
= Is it delicious?
If you say,
Ex. A: M: マギー先生か？
= Maggie sensei ka?
Ex. B:M: もう朝ごはんを食べたか？
= Mou asagohan wo tabeta ka?
Ex. C: M: 美味しいか？
= Oishii ka?
They mean the same thing, but they sound like you are interrogating the listeners.
So:
noun + か ( = ka)?
verb plain form + か ( = ka)?
are the blunt male speech form.
Ex. 勉強したか？ (a)
= Benkyou shitaka?
= Did you study?
You add の ( = no) before か ( = ka) to make it sound stronger. (express more feelings)
Ex. 勉強したのか？ (b)
= Benkyou shita no ka?
= Did you study? (You must study.)
While (a) simply asks whether the listener has studied or not, (b) implies the feeling, “You might not study (accusing) / You must study” more.
Ex. 俺の気持ちがお前にわかるのか？
= Ore no kimochi ga omae ni wakaru no ka?
= Do you understand my feelings? (This implies, “You don’t understand my feelings.”)
Let’s keep going!
*verb dictionary form (present / past tense ) + んだ ( = nda)
When you ask a question. It depends on the intonation but it is also used to interrogate someone or accuse someone.
Ex. 明日、どこに行くんだ？
= Ashita, doko ni ikunda?
= Where are you going tomorrow?
Ex. 昨日、どこに行ったんだ？
= Kinou, dokoni ittan da?
= Where did you go yesterday?
Ex. どうしてそんなことをするんだ。
= Doushite sonna koto wo surunda.
= Why do you do such a thing.
Note: If it is a statement and not a question form, it is neutral. (Women use that form as well.)
Ex. 明日、デートに行くんだ。(neutral)
= Ashita, deeto ni ikunda.
= I have a date tomorrow, you know.
Ex. 結局、あの本、買わなかった。ちょっと、高かったんだ。(neutral)
= Kekkyoku, ano hon, kawanakatta. Chotto, takakattanda.
= I ended up not buying that book. It was a bit expensive, you know.
★Strong imperative form:
*する = suru = to do
→M: しろ = shiro
*やる = yaru = to do, to give
→M: やれ = yare
(Note: やれ ( = yare) is slightly stronger l than しろ( = shiro)
Ex. 早くしろ = Hayaku shiro = Hurry up! / Do it quickly!
Ex. お前がやれ！= Omae ga yare = You do it!
*食べる = たべる = taberu = to eat
→M: 食べろ = たべろ = tabero = Eat!
Even stronger:
*M: 食う (喰う) = くう = kuu = to eat
Ex. 飯*を食う (喰う) = めしをくう = to eat food
Note: 飯 (= meshi) is a rough way to say ご飯 = gohan = rice, meal, food
→喰え = くえ = kue = Eat!
*黙る = だまる = damaru = to shut up
→M: 黙れ = だまれ = damare = Shut up!
Ex.お前は黙れ！
= Omae wa damare!
= You shut up!
* やめる ( = yameru) to stop doing something
→M: やめろ ( = yamero )
Negative form:
verb plain form + な ( = na)
* する ( = suru) to do
→M: するな ( = suru na)
* 捨てる ( = suteru ) throw something away
→M: 捨てるな ( = suteru na)
This form can be seen in a street signs.
Ex. ここにゴミを捨てるな
= Koko ni gomi wo suteru na.
= Don’t leave trash here.
* 泣く = naku = to cry
→M: 泣くな ( = naku na)
Ex. もう泣くな。
= Mou naku na.
= Stop crying already.
Note: Though it is a strong form you sometimes use it as a quote.
This usage is neutral. Both men and women use.
Ex.誰が行くなと言っても行く。
= Dare ga ikuna to itte mo iku.
= No matter who tells me not to go, I will go.
★ Gentle way to tell someone to do something.
If you add な ( = na) to verb masu stem, it is more gentle
*masu stem + な ( = na)
*食べなさい = tabenasai
→食べな = たべな= tabena = Eat! / You should eat. (It sounds much warmer than 食べろ = tabero)
Ex. 腹減ってる*のか？なんか、食べな。
= Hara hetteru no ka? Nanka tabena.
= Are you hungry? Eat something, you know.
Note: 腹 = hara = stomach is another male speech
( polite form is お腹 = おなか = onaka)
Ex. さっさと宿題をやりな。
= Sassa to shukudai wo yarina.
= Finish up your homework now.
Ex. これで何か買いな。
＝ Kore de nani ka kaina.
= Buy something with this (money).
★てあげる= te ageru = to do something for someone
→M: てやる= te yaru = to do something for someone / threaten someone telling them what you are going to do
Ex. 明日、よかったら空港まで送ってやるよ。
= Ashita, yokattara kuukou made okutte yaru yo.
= If you want, I can take you to the airport, you know.
Ex. あいつに俺の気持ちをわからせてやる。
= Aitsu ni ore no kimochi wo wakarasete yaru.
= I am going to make him understand my feelings.
*variation
てやれ ( = te yare) command form/ suggesting someone to do something
Ex. もっと彼女を大切にしてやれ。
= Motto kanojo wo taisetsu ni shite yare.
= You should take care of her more.
★Typical suffix:
You might think the suffix よ ( = yo) and わ ( = wa) are just for female speech but they are also used as suffixes in male speech.
* よ ( = yo)
interrogative verb form + よ ( = yo)
You use it when you urge someone to do / not to do something.
It sounds stronger or you can express your frustration.
Ex. 静かにしろよ。
= Shizuka ni shiro yo.
= Be quiet, you know.
Ex. 黙れよ!
= Damare yo!
= Shut up!
Ex. そんなところに黙ってつっ立って*んじゃねえよ
= Sonna tokoro ni damatte tsutatten ja nee yo
= Don’t just stand up there saying nothing.
Note: *つっ立つ= tsuttatu= M: to stand up
* な ( = na)
While female suffix な ( = na) is used when you talk to yourself, you use it when you ask for an agreement from the listener in male speech.
Ex. これ美味しいな。 (female speech)
= Kore oishii na.
= This is delicious.
It doesn’t matter if there is a listener around the speaker or not. The speaker would use this even if they are talking to themselves.
Ex. これうまいな。(male speech)
= Kore umai na
= This is delicious, isn’t it? (The speaker is talking to the listener and asking for agreement.)
Ex. 帰ったらメールするな
=Kaettara meiru suru na.
= I will text you when I get home, OK?
Ex. この酒、強いな。
= Kono sake, tsuyoi na.
= This liquor is strong, huh?
* わ ( = wa)
verb dictionary form + わ ( = wa) When you tell someone what you are going to do.
The intonation is slightly different from female usage.
Ex. もう行くわ。
= Mou iku wa.
= I am off now.
Ex. これお前にやるわ。
= Kore omae ni yaru wa.
= I will give it to you.
* ぜ ( = ze) :
verb dictionary form (present, past tense) / i-adjective + ぜ ( = ze)
when you tell someone what you are going to do / express your feelings
Ex. 何でもやるぜ 。
= Nandemo yaru ze.
= I will do anything, you know.
Ex. 泣けるぜ！
= Nakeru ze!
= It makes me cry! (It’s sad, It’s touching!)
Ex. これ、うまい*ぜ！
= Kore, umai ze!
= This is delicious, you know!
Note: うまい ( = umai) is the male speech equivalent of おいしい ( = oishii)
*You can use んだぜ ( = ndaze) to emphasize a point.
Ex. これ、１万円もしたんだぜ。
= Kore, ichimanen mo shitan daze.
= This costs good 10,000 yen, you know.
* verb volitional form + ぜ ( = ze)
When you encourage someone to do/not to do something.
Ex. バンドを一緒にやろうぜ！
=Bando wo issho ni yarou ze!
= Why don’t we do a band together?
*noun / na-adjective + だぜ ( = daze)
Ex. ワイルドだぜ～！
= Wairudao daze~!
= I am tough, right? / It’s very wild, you know.
(This line was made famous by the comedian Sugisan a few years ago.)

Note: As we have seen, all these expressions sound very vulgar. Needless to say, if a woman uses male speech, it sounds horrible.
However, there has been a slight trend of women using some of the male speech pattern on purpose to make them sound funny or tough.
One reason they do this is to mimic some comedians talk.
Ex. 「マギー先生、美味しそうですね。」
= Maggie sensei, oishisou desune.

Hello Maggie-sensei
I’ve turned into the dark side of male speech ごめんね Σ(°△°|||)
You said in your lesson we could turn ない to ねえ in male speech. But I’ve seen some using ん like すまん or 使わん (instead of すまない and 使わない). Is it the same ねえ or is it used for particular cases?
Also I’ve seen the suffix っタレ(or ったれ) which was translated as Sauce, which makes no sense to me. (for context: 動画っタレ用の宣材撮っないと) I suppose it is not a good word…
Thank you Sensei!
Hello Gaspatcher
〜ねえ sounds more rough than ~ん.
It depends on the intonation and as you said, すまん is mainly for male speech but ない →〜ん is also a dialect in many regions in Japan (Chubu area, Kansai area, etc.) and both men and women use.
知らない→知らん
できない→できん
~ったれ is derogatory. You add this suffix to point out someone’s weakness or negative aspect. You have to be careful because it will insult people.
Ok, I’ll avoid this then, but it’s always good to know!
Thank you for your reply Sensei!
Anytime! :)
Hello Maggie sensei🌻, I wanna ask you about Watashi, Boku and Ore🙏. I understand that Watashi it’s the safe option most of the time (with older people, not close relationship, stranger, etc), but I wanna know your opinion about 2 examples that makes me think a lot (I’m in my 20’s just in case that age were important):
1st example: Talking with older people, they are the age of my parents and they treat me like a son, we are close.
How I see the situation (maybe wrong):
Watashi: could be ok but maybe a bit cold if we have a close relationship?
Boku: in this case to me sounds ok if they treat me like a son? but doesn’t sound like a teenager? I’m a young adult but it’s not a good idea sound like a teenager when you are a responsible adult
Ore: I don’t know in this case, maybe rude because they are older? or maybe ok if you wanna show yourself like an adult?
2nd example: Couple relationship or date with a girl.
How I see the situation (maybe wrong):
Watashi: Weird if she’s your girlfriend or it’s a date?
Boku: Not so ok because you sound like a teenager?
Ore: Better option in this case?
Hi David
1st example
Watashi:
→If you know them well and they treat like their son, it is too formal to use 私
Boku:
→ For your age, it is the safest and the most natural way to call yourself.
Ore:
→You are right. It sounds a bit rude and rough. Unless you have a very close relationship. It doesn’t show yourself like an adult.
2nd example: Couple relationship or date with a girl.
How I see the situation (maybe wrong):
Watashi:
→Right Too formal.
Boku: Not so ok because you sound like a teenager?
→ぼく is not necessary just for teenagers. You can use ぼく
Ore:
→This depends on your personality. If you are calling yourself おれ in daily life and the girl think it is natural, it is acceptable. Some girls don’t care but some do so there is a fine line.
But the thing is you often omit the first pronoun and the second pronoun in conversation so unless you focus on yourself, you don’t use ぼく、おれ、わたし in conversation.
You: 昨日は、疲（つか）れて1日寝（ね）てたよ。
(I was really tired yesterday and slept all day yesterday.)
The girl : なんで疲れてたの？
(How come you were so tired?)
You: その前の日、徹夜(てつや）で勉強してたからさあ。
(Because I was studying all night the day before so…)
Thank you as always Maggie sensei🌻, it’s a deep topic and closely related to culture in my opinion, so unless you’re native japanese it’s not easy to fully understand, also there are many many opinions when native japanese people explain these words. Finally I would like to ask your opinion about a 3rd example:
It’s an informal situation, but it’s the first time that I meet that person, and he or she is the same age or younger than me, could be a friend of a friend or something like that, in that situation which word would be better if I have to use “I”? and also in a situation like that, should I use formal style like masu form and desu, or informal style? Thank you for the advice about omitting pronouns too 🌻🌻
Longtime reader, first time poster! Thank you for all your hard work.
Though I have to admit, I’m one of the women who uses masculine words; not to make a point or because of anime, but because my personality has always been very 男っぽい and so it really does feel more natural for me.
All that said, I only use them with my Japanese husband and very close friends; when I’m talking to anyone else, I use proper feminine Japanese (^^)
Hi Naka!
I’m happy to hear you have been reading my lessons for a long time. Also thank you for your first comment.
Haha, so you can switch your way of speaking depending on who you talk to. That’s the next level!! Good for you! :)
Another very useful lesson, thanks a lot Maggie-sensei! With this lesson alone under my belt, I understand anime a lot better!
May I aks a question about one of your example sentences? It’s
Ex. 俺、そんなことやってねえし。(I didn’t do such a thing)
From my understanding, やってねえし is from やってないし, with し being used emphatically and やって(い)ない being the negative form of やっている. But, why is the non-past tense used here, if the action is about the past?
Hello @Davide Bordoni,
～ている／～ていない have many meanings. In this case – depending on context – the speaker might refer to his/her habits (he/she generally doesn’t do such kind of things) or the speaker uses ～ていない as 現在完了形, which is in English translated as: “haven’t done something yet”. More probably he refers to the first aspect.

@Davide @天人
Sorry, Davide. I just saw your question. Luckily 天人 answered your question. Thank you 天人 for helping Davide.
No worries Maggie-sensei, and thanks again for this great lesson!
U^ェ^U 💕💕💕
Thanks 天人, I really appreciate that! I get it now
This was very useful, I have a question though, besides sounding rude is there any reason to not use this speech? And is there polite male speech? Thank you.
Generally speaking, male speech is rough so you should avoid using it unless you are talking to your close friends.
Though there are super casual “polite form” です→っす （そうです→そうっす）, I believe there is no proper polite male speech form.
Hi Maggie sensei,
Thanks for making this lesson.
I know you have overcome a lot of uncomfortable feeling to teach this male speech (coz it’s quite rough for a woman).
May I ask a question, that this is the conversation style typical of male when a man talk to a man.
How about the style when a man talk to a woman?
Do they still use this style, or if not, which style will be suitable?
It depends on the person and the relationship with the listener.
It could be more rough when a man talks to a man but some don’t change the way they talk when they talk to women.
Hi Maggie-sensei,
いつもありがとうございます :))
With love,
Bella
いいえ、どういたしまして、Bella! 💕
Hello Maggie!
Long time no see, hope you’re doing well as always :)
This time I brought with me a simple question. During playing the Japanese version of Final Fantasy IX I came across the following expression:「ただでは済まさんからなっ！！」Here is a wider context:
「何を言うか、貴様～ッ！
自分は姫さまのことを案じておったのだっ！！
貴様らが誘拐などという不届きなことを企むから、
このようなことになったのだぞっ！！
姫さまに万が一のことがあったら、ただでは済まさんからなっ！！」
I’d like to know, which expression is stronger 1. ただでは済まない or 2. ただではおかない?
The meaning of both of them is the same, right Maggie?
Hi 天人！ 元気でしたか？
First
ただでは済まさんからな
ただではおかんからな。
mean almost the same. They both involves the speaker’s will.
ただでは済まない You can’t get away with it. /You are going to get it. / You are going to pay for it.
(The speaker is talking about what the listener’s going to get.)
ただではおかない I won’t let you get away with it. (It involves the speaker’s will.)
In that sense, I think おかない sounds a little stronger.
相変わらず元気でやってるずら！
説明してくれてありがとうな。
さー、FF IXとの冒険を続けようぜッ！なかなか長い冒険になるんだぜ、確かに！
行ってらっしゃ〜い！ 気をつけて冒険続けてね。(^_−)−☆
Ah, good 〰 I thought I was the only one who thought that “if a woman uses male speech, it sounds horrible.”
There was a girl who I knew when I studied abroad in Japan who insisted on calling herself “Bokukko-Kun” and talked very masculine, despite being the cutest, littlest girl I’ve ever met! Many of the students in our program were “dedicated to japan” (for lack of better words) because of Anime, and like to embody Anime stereotypes …needless to say, they weren’t very professional, even when talking to the principal!

Hi Ymir,
Yes, there are girls/women who intentionally use this male speech to create their own “character” or to try to make them sound “strong/rough”.
Boys/Men also have a risk to use Japanese that they learned in anime.

マギー先生、とてもいいレッセンですね。ありがとうございます！ boucingheart!
Woah, very good! Besides being rude, I feel that I’ll sound more naturally from a native speaker perspective, by using some of the male speech in casual conversations. Because of the animes, I always wanted to know where that “~ee” form came from, such as “sugoi” becoming “sugee” (I thought it was some kind of regional variation lol). Now I managed to understand it. Thank you sooo much, Maggie Sensei!
@ビクトル
Haha, you now sound like a man! (Just be careful when to use.) :)
Now i can sound like a punk – yo yo bitch. lol just kidding, but this lesson can be very useful to understand some anime characters. ブラジルからちーっす。
@ギレルメ
Hehe, enjoy watching anime!
