Japanese Online Idioms (154)

1 Name: Anonymous 2004-10-27 17:19 ID:Heaven [Del]

I'd like to know what some of these strange, reoccuring online idioms mean that japenese use. One of them is (ry, for instance. Here is a thread for your opportunity to explain them to us online gaijin.

A starting point might be this obscure page here:

Here's some things I think I have figured out so far:

WAROTA (ƒƒƒ^) seems to be their version of our LOL.
NETA (ƒlƒ^) seems to be their word for (internet-related) MEME(s).

3 Name: !WAHa.06x36 2004-10-27 17:35 ID:PbPssBag [Del]

warota is often shortened "w".

"orz" is a pictograph of a guy on his knees. It's a simplification of "�|P|_". The exact meaning escapes me, though.

4 Name: Anonymous 2004-10-27 17:43 ID:Heaven [Del]

The meaning varies. It can be used to declare that you are sorry for something while avoiding an elaborate apology. More commonly it is used as a sign of being frustrated, though.

There is also SURE/ƒXƒ�, which means thread, and is not in the usual dictionaries.
Not sure what's the "SURE Lord", tho. Maybe the one who starts the thread.

6 Name: Sling!myL1/SLing 2004-10-27 19:31 ID:QmjfP6rA [Del]

Then you have DQN. DQN means either asocial or defective, depending on the context.

warai = laugh
warota = I laughed

I like the symmetry of "SURE" and "RESU" for "thread" and "reply".

I like how RESU and REZU sound and look so similiar.

Another useful ressource (for those who can read japanese to begin with) is the japanese's Wikipedia entry on 2ch:

>>7 so "warota" actually means "I lol'ed"

13 Name: Anonymous 2004-11-03 22:39 ID:Heaven [Del]

That's kinda redundant since "LOL" means the one who wrote it is the one lolling.

14 Name: Anonymous 2004-11-03 23:12 ID:Heaven [Del]

Also, "I lol'ed" refers to a past event. I don't think either LOL or WAROTA try to convey that notion.

15 Name: George Broppermadge 2004-11-04 00:03 ID:2t9TOFrg [Del]

I loled can usually be used in the same situations as lol when replying to message board posts.

I guess it's like this:
( indicates abbreviated romaji
(w is an abbreviation of "warota"
(ry is an abbreviation of "ryaku" (maybe it's funny because it's recursive)
so: (ry = abbrev.

Some rather rare gem is "ore".
This was originally in English:

go away! this is my ore
sorry...Im from japan,poor poor english.
hehe konitiwa!
konitiwa! do you know japanese?
a little,konitiwa sushi geisha honda pokemon ninja
yesyes great! I teach you japanese, "nurupo"
nurupo? what?
"nurupo" japanese mean "F**k you" ok?
oh excllent nurupo!
nurupo nurupo nurupo nurupo nurupo
lol
GO AWAY THIS IS MY ORE,NURUPO!

Which also brings us to NURUPO or Nullpo, but I will leave that for another post.

"ore" isn't an idiom, it just means he's playing Warcraft (or some game like that).

37 Name: Shii Style!!W47vWMsG 2004-11-07 19:03 ID:8Ma2y2wA [Del]

I think >>19 is right about (ry), it's short for hobo, i.e., "roughly", and is written ryaku because the Japanese love incorrectly understood kanji (c.f. "saba/mackerel") and the fact that the ryaku means "abbreviation" just makes it funnier.

"Ore" is a peculiar word?

41 Name: Anonymous 2004-11-07 19:54 ID:Heaven [Del]

>>40

It's made up of (English) letters only, has a meaning that cannot be found in standard (English) dictionaries... Yes, I'd say it's peculiar alright. And if you wanted to insinuate that it might not be word - the general definitions of "word" are broad enough to let it slip by.

Yes, I'm pulling your leg - well, half of it.
The point I'm making is that come as cum is more widely used in English than in other languages, and that kita has nothing to do with the English come.
Amusingly, if we go to the Indo-European root of come it means "come, go." ^^

My Japanese is very poor, I use a lot of tools to barely manage to translate Japanese to English. I still haven't memorized all hiragana and barely none of katakana (pathetic, I know...) I can pull out a few pre-made sentences but not have a conversation, especially not if there are kanji used. I don't know what kanji to use in what situation. As for the grammar structure of a sentence, I don't know the rules.
Most of us in that group seem to be as clueless. One poster asked for clarification of why a grammar structure was wrong and never got answered, for example.

69 Name: Anonymous 2004-11-19 15:39 ID:Heaven [Del]

> come as cum is more widely used in English than in other languages

No, at least in German it is used just as often, if not more often. In German it also isn't "to reach orgasm" but "to come to orgasm".

> Amusingly, if we go to the Indo-European root of come it means "come, go."

That is not all too un-common. The most basic terms that origin in the most primitive languages have often had one word for the term itself and its opposite.

> Most of us in that group seem to be as clueless.

Then ask. There's someone there who would be willing to answer now, it seems.
But it's just an opportunity, anyway.

I warmly recommend James Heisig's books Remembering the Hiragana and Remembering the Katakana. They claim to teach you each syllabary in three hours, and they do not lie about this. Me and several friends have all used these to very quickly and efficiently learn hiragana and katakana.

There's a combined version too; http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/4889960724/002-0281214-3618431?v=glance

Get the book. With it, there's no need to do any other kind of training than actually sitting down and reading the language to get familiar with it once you're done with the lessons. They really are amazing.

The trick they use is to use silly mental images for the characters. This is surprisingly effective.

KOPIPE (ƒRƒsƒy) is short for "copypaste(s)" and refers to AA and rants (like the Yoshinoya one) that are made up and then used multiple times all over the places to ridicule a certain poster.

A friend of mine uses PORI PORI (ƒ|ƒŠƒ|ƒ�), he uses it to say that he's eating something (usually candy).
I've seen a few people using this before, I don't know if it's a common thing on the chans though.

"‚‘‚�‚—‚¹‚�’‚�”‚�™‚Ó‚¶‚±‚Œ‚�" is also funny because it says "Fujiko". True story.

Yeah, I've spotted a "Ú×plz", which would be a combination of "Ú×ƒLƒ{ƒ�" and "source plz" (both of which mean the same thing).

Well, I found it hilarious, at least.

Also, just like how "source plz" keeps mutating just because it's said so often and is such a trite thing to say, the Japanese keep coming up with variations on "Ú×ƒLƒ{ƒ�" too. I guess the "plz" is just one of the latest ones.

It isn't actually how you would ram out QWERTY on a Japanese keyboard, it's a particular arrangement (try following the letters) which happens to spell out Fujiko.

What does "gb2/something" mean?

129 Name: Anonymous : 2006-01-14 15:18 ID:qenVkpw5 [Del]

"get back to -something-"

probably from old colonial / racist exclamations of wanting economic / refugee immigrants of former slave classes to "get back to africa (and stop stealing our jobs)" etc. In this case usually an expression of the poster informing the subject that they are in the wrong board section (or wrong board altogether) and where they should go to ("take" their wrong-subject post "back" to).

e.g. someone within the 4chan lot puts a pornographic post on a board about kittens... incensed felophile orders them to "gb2/h/ !!!1" and might well request "modz" to have them "b&" (b-and, banned)

might also be written in this case as a more simple "gb2h" without the slashes... if they posted something that was not allowed on the board but allowed on another (e.g. iichan not 4chan) there would be "gb2/iichan".... and for things that are just plain wrong and have no home, there's the universal GTFO (get the f--- out)

easy enough when you know how ;)
