What about daibakayaro instead of oobakayaro?


Well, watch enough dramas, and you get an answer. :woot:

In episode 4 of Fuyu no Sakura Shigenori Yamazaki calls Tsuyoshi Kusanagi "Oobakayaro!!"

Maybe i am being paranoid. What does the whole label say? I mean i have never seen an ordinary plate that comes with so much instructions on usage.

It's kind of hard to read because it's kind of small but from what I can read, it's definitely not to be used in an oven.

There's the line ƒI[ƒxƒ“, ’¼‰Î‚ł͎g—p‚µ‚È‚¢‚­‚¾‚³‚¢, which means don't use in an oven or with direct flame.

The line above it is “dŽqƒŒƒ“ƒW‚ł̎g—p‚̓Œƒ“ƒW‚̎戵à–¾‘‚ɏ]‚¢, which as near as I can tell says "follow directions for using in a microwave". I dunno it sounds like it's okay for a microwave but I'm not 100% sure, I mean "directions" what "directions"? When I'm using a microwave I just set the timer and let it go.

And I know what you mean about a LOT of instructions. A friend of mine once said, "For people that don't talk much, the Japanese like to explain EVERYTHING!" :crazy:

And if anybody else looked at my interpretations and is saying, "No, Mark, you're full of shit, that isn't what it says." Feel free to jump in, you're not going to hurt my feelings and we're all here to learn, right? :say_cool:

onomatopoeia

Yes they exist :) I never used one but I'm sure they exist, there's many kinds of dictionaries at my university... like one solely for adverbs. I would guess the onomatopoeia dict's would be pretty damn big since Jpns has so many of those words...


First of all I absolutely HATE rap. But having said that, I saw this video on NHK and thought it was pretty cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fo9YFcX7cR4
