Fav Jap Quotes (what do they mean?!!)

Mike4doa · 03-12-2008, 02:15 PM

Okay so here I am trying to figure out what expressions are most liked by all. And while were at it WTF do they mean???? No offense to the fansubbers, but some expressions can't be translated only explained.

So if oyu got them, Show 'em!!!

Obviously mine are
Bakka(ro)
Masakena

I also like the expression "Fusakenda!!" (is this right???) meaning "You've got to be kidding me!".

If you have anything to say about the translations/way we write them, plz say so. I intend to compile this eventually.

Djane! (bye/Cya!)

Bakka(ro) ばか (baka) or ばかやろ (bakayaro) simply means stupid or idiot depending on the overall context of the sentence it is used in.
I am not sure about the other words you wrote (maybe because spelling is a bit off, or my Japanese skill is insufficient)
Masakena sounds like Masaka, まさか! which is something in the lines of 'no way!' in English.
Fusakenda sounds most like ふざけるな or Fuzakeruna if spelled in English.
This is one of the rare Japanese profanities, that you could see gangs using in Japanese medias (usually accompanied by an angry face and a spit in that case)

Oh wow, Didn't expect this quite so fast. Great input!!!

Masakena (i 've heard it in eps 1 of Ikkitoussen DD and also a bunch of other series) and it means "How shamefull" like wanting to dissapear either because of your own actions then possibly the actions of someone you know very well and who might reflect on you as well.

I've seen a bunch of series that use the expression Fusakenda / Fuzakeruna? to say "No way! "You've got to be kidding me" or "Get outta town!" I've mostly grasped this by looking at the context this is used in. recent examples are found in Bamboo blade epside 1 and 19 it's about Yuuji and Kojiro' disbelief of Dan-kun's girls (First Miya Miya, later Carrie). here it's translated as "You're frigging kidding me!"

additionally i like the deadpan "Aho" comment. first i though they were quite rude to make an english abbrivation for a foul word. later on i discovered it means "ignorant one" in the more common sense of a so-called "Dolt" of "Ninny".

I am not sure of Masakena yet. I never heard of that exact expression being used ever, or it could be a dialect (like Osaka people tend to end their sentence with ya instead desu, yan instead san)
I have not seen Ikki Toussen. and googling for the closest possible word on my side is not working.
This is the list of anime I have seen:

if possible, please tell me the anime the quote 'Masakena' was in.

Aho also has a similar stance as saying idiot.

I'm gonna check your list an then check the anime's i've got (i'll make my own list as well link will follow). here's a link to the file of ikkitoussen DD small file (42 mb) http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=K9VDWRV2
or (77 MB) http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=OPG02CQG
or (93 MB)http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=DJL74CT9
or (58 MB) http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=WKEU9L4D it the last file that i have and if you'd look it's when they are at the pool.
I'll look for more examples but that's gonna take a while given the anime i've got. (help anyone???)

"Blue You are calm and controlled. You are also very sweet and get along with others well. Sometimes others do not understand why you are so nice and think you have a hidden agenda. If you do...thats to bad, but if you don't you have nothing to worry about! =]" twilight test: "You are Edward! You are extremely good-looking and loving with excellent taste in music. Apparently your hobbies include music, fastness, and Bella. ^.~" seems she was right about me >.> but i would replace the Bella hobby with Koyuki ;) o.o vampire test: You're a vampire bat. Aww... who's the cutest-wutest vampire in the world? You are! Normal vampires tend to be cranky and mean, but you're a sweet, sensitive little thing. You don't want to live in a drafty old castle; you'd rather hang out somewhere tropical with all of your friends. When you get hungry, instead of biting big holes in someone's neck, you make two teeny holes in their finger and lap up the blood with your tongue. If you could just shake that unfortunate habit of feeding on people while they're sleeping, you'd probably be the most popular pet on the planet -- you're fuzzy, you fit in a handbag, and you fly! i wrote these for you Koyuki ^^ Spoiler Close but far away My thoughts always where you are My wishes spent on meeting you I talk to you everyday Share my feelings Spill my thoughts Spend every second i can with you But yet we're separated Unable to see each other Unable to hear each other I can feel my heartbeat And somewhere i feel yours As i send my love out to you Hoping we'll finally meet an ocean apart I'm always there Right by your side Never leaving Never parting I can feel your close Always near me This feeling inside My heart calls for you I awake from my dream And face reality It's cruel, I know But it can't be helped Because you're in fact far away an ocean apart a change for the better I always thought, my life had no meaning I always thought, it wouldn't matter if I died Nothing to live for, nothing to fight for Nothing to cherish, nothing to protect But I have changed, my life has changed I have something to live for, to fight for Something to cherish, something to protect Ever since I met you Ever since I spoke these words I love you and I will always do love you have no idea what you're doing to me whenever i think about you my heart beats like crazy whenever i talk to you everything else disappears i don't really care about myself anymore i only care about you because as long as you're okay so am i when you're happy, i am when you're sad, i am too and i will try to cheer you up because i want you to be happy above all that's all i want because i love you and i need you more than i need myself the rest of my sig: Spoiler Other signatures by de-kun and tama-san: Spoiler More pics!!
