Where did your username originate from?

ahochaude wrote:So do you just hit bags and not spar?

I sparred before and fortunately haven't had a broken nose or lazy eye as a result of it, :). My strength is speed; I am pretty good at dodging.

Now I only do boxing training with no real fights. Can't afford to go through a reconstruction surgery if I break something during the fights, :beaten: , and surgery-treated is just not the original, right? :). Either way, it is a good sport (boxing, not surgery, :hehe: ) to keep one alert and fit, me thinks.

(IMO) You're lucky to have not broken a nose or anything while sparring. When I was sparring during the time I was training Muay Thai, I think my friend almost broke my ribs with a huge ass kick to it. (Yeah, I was on the floor in the fetus position) :beaten:
As for me, I'm not much of a "speed" fighter, whereas my strength in fighting is rather to jack you up with a couple of blows. But I am not slow while delivering. I'm just not much of a defensive fighter.
But one thing's for sure, I would rather spar with someone than hit the bags. Live target, y'know?! ;)

Yeah, I like boxing. Thing is, I can't do it. I need to use other methods rather than just my fists.

What is the origin of "ahochaude"?

"I'm not an idiot"? I know what "aho/ahou" means but I ain't up on Kansai-ben at all :sweat:

Yup, you're right on the translation.

OK. I don't understandthe "'chaude" part.

I'm actually saying it to myself in front of the computer:

GF: Yooouuuuuuuuu AHO!!!!!
Ahochaude: AHOCHAUDE

Ahochaude . . . ahochaude . . . hmmmm . . . ahochaude . . .

"Chaude" means "Dewa Arimasen"/"Jya Nai"

"Chaude" is Kansai-ben (Osaka, Kobe dialect).
"Jya Nai" is Kanto-ben (Tokyo)
Both mean the same thing.

English translation: Am not; ain't; not true/so; is not.

So, Ahochaude=I'm not an idiot.

But I've learned to deal with when people call me Aho for short. Even though it totally contradicts the meaning of the original statement. But that's ok.

Now I'll finally remember the "chaude" part :hehe: I figured you wouldn't be calling yourself an aho so it was a total gues :sweat: "Chaude" makes me think of "chigau" for no real reason, so I'll probably remember it that way :mrgreen:

Actually at times, I do call myself an Aho 'cause I do all kinds of stupid stuff! :beaten:

As for you being able to remember what Chaude means because you associate it with Chigau is very good! :applaud:
Whatever works, y'know?! Main thing is that you learn and remember new things! :D

My nickname is plan simple, just because I like the name Amber. But the name is so common, I just add a "r" at the end.

Hirari is Hillary in Nihongo...plain and simple. I'm so un-original.

Bah, I got my screen name from a music magazine. :sweat: . And the 1184 part is my birth month and year. So there, don't feel too un-original.
