I love cats , but sadly my current home doesn't allow pets. If you don't mind me asking---what kind of cats do you have and do you have more than one? If I'm going to be eaten by them if I favor the wrong costume , I should at least know what to run away from At least I don't favor the boob shirt, so I don't need to worry, but would like a dark teal costume Link to comment
robin Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 the boobskirt provides never-ending material for discussion, it's fascinating Link to comment

They already replied, but I wanted to specify that in Japanese there's a whole category of vocabulary called wasei-eigo, which are pseudo-Anglicisms, which to me are probably one of the most hilarious things about Japanese (I don't mean this in a disrespectful way - I find Japanese vocabulary absorption from the outside particularly intelligent), because these English vocabulary are adapted to Japanese pronunciation, creating things like: teeberu (table), nooto (notebook), or even complete expressions like karesu missu (Careless mistake) or, as I've learned yesterday, adobaisu purizu. So I googled this expression because I wanted to find out whether Yuzuru had made it up, or it was a codified wasei-ego! (OT ) Link to comment

(OT ) Borrowed English words with Japanese pronunciation were one of the hardest things for me, since I'm from the US, because I would pronounce something in the way I'm used to and some Japanese people would not understand me. However, the reverse side is that putting borrowed words in Katakana makes it more difficult to learn English conversation. Also, I think that it sometimes makes for some rather amusing printed sayings on tee-shirts . Link to comment

Fay Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 I don't know which is more off topic, Yuzu's costumes or English loan-words in Japanese. Let's say both are loosely related to the subject in hand. Link to comment

yuzuthebest Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Guess who's in this picture ? http://blog-imgs-110-origin.fc2.com/b/l/t/bltraveler/20170521111251a66.jpg It was a seminar for foreign students who had the intention of studying in Japan held by the Japanese Embassy to China (No idea which city as not shown here). And this was probably the turn of Waseda University where Yuzu's a student on the register. They introduced him as someone well known and by Chinese people, I suppose. Also, those famous alumni were there. Explanation to Pictures (as shown only) : Right Top. : 7 Japanese former Prime Ministers Below L>>R: 1) Tadashi Yanai, CEO of "UNIQLO" Born 7.2.1949/ The faculty of Politics & Finance Japanese Billionaire Ranking No.1/World Ranking No.41; Property : ¥202,000,000,000 2) Haruki Murakami, a novelist,short- story writer,translator,essayist Born 12.1.1949/The Faculty of Literature One of his notable works, "1Q84" has been translated into more than 50 languages; Several times already has been nominated for Nobel Prize 3) Yuzuru Hanyu, the Legend/Megastar of Figure Skating (Too many details,impossible to fill in this little tiny space. ) ........................................................................................ Lotte welcomes him home now at Sendai Station ! He should be home soon or directly head for Makuhari (FaOI/ 26-28) ?! https://t.co/kaGnCniK4Q https://t.co/QE6JYH8vsu (added on 24.5.2017) Link to comment
