I would like to know what some of the Japanese phrases mean that are mostly used online, on boards like 2ch, e.g.
There is DQN and (ry, for instance.
What do those mean? Are there other ones I need to know to understand an average online conversation?
Please enlighten me!
This thread refers to another thread, by the way:
What is Saitama
Saitama is the capital of Japan.
It's the most popular city where sophisticated poeple live.
>>59
Saitama is a prefecture in Japan:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saitama_Prefecture
Historically, a lot of funny & weird news come from Saitama.
How this gave birth to this AA meme, I do not know,
I think it has something to do with a logo for the
capital (of the same name) or the prefecture itself
which looks the same:

What's "Uruse hage" and "manse"?
I'm worried about how long 4-ch can survive. Why do so few post?
>>66
Using "Uruse hage" is very rude even on the net.
It is like a curse.
"Uruse" means "shut up, don't disturb me, shut your big mouth"
or whatever(anyway very rude).
"hage" means bald as an adjective. As a noun
You can call someone
who's bald "hage" as well(Very offensive indeed).
On the other hand, "manse" is not the Japanese language.
It's Korean, meaning "I'll say, I couldn't agree more" or
something like that, I think.
The reason why some Japanese people use it online is because
they've watched on the tube that North Korean people
obey anything their leader commands, saying "Manse".
It's because of the autocracy of North Korea, I think...
>>68
Thank you for clearing that up for me. That was very educational indeed.
I see the phrase "うp" very often on Japanese BBS. What does it mean?
>>70
When you type "うp", you push "U" and "P" on your keyboard.
So "うp" is "up".
And when they say "うp", it means they ask someone
to "up"load photos/music/articles or whatever.
In a nutshell, うp means uploading such a thing.
>>71
Thank you very much. You have been of great help to me!
>>72
Anytime.
I have come across "UMA" some times now. It seems like it is used to characterize something weird or unusual, but I am not sure. Can anyone shed any light on this?
>>74
Is it a kind of Japanese acronym?
Honestly, I've never seen it..
I guess I can be of help, if you let me get the context of
how UMA was used, as long as it's Japanese.
And when I wrote the above, something sprung to mind.
Is it "(゚Д゚)ウマー"? that you meant?
If so, I can tell you what it's like.
So Uma- often means one's feelings(often a very positive ones),
such as when some food hits the spot, tastes delicious,
or has a good flavour to the extent that you want to shout,
"I love it!", "Very delicious!!" or something like that.
And another meaning is that what's happened is very favorable
to you and you love the situation, so you want to shout,
"It's veeery nice!!", "It couldn't be better!" or what not.
Anyway, both of the usages are slangy, though.
Sorry if I took you wrong.
Think this thread is useful.
I have a question too: what means 「萌える」?
For example the phrase:
このスレめちゃめちゃ萌える。
kono sure mechamecha houeru.
==> "This confused thread buds." ??
>>78
Hmm, that's a tough question to answer,
because 萌える has mistakenly been used online,
especially on 2ch, as a result of which the wrong
usage spread offline in Japan.
So I believe the online usage of 萌える is hard to find
in the Japanese dictionaries, let alone in the ones
for Japanese learners.
Anyway, 萌える originally(rightly) means burgeon.
But as you see, we use that word to express our feelings,
for instance, "I love sth because it's very pretty/cute/
interesting". it's used very humorously.
You don't want to say it when people are serious.
Note: this expression also implies sexuality (also humorous).
Did I make myself clear?
And let me make a comment on your sample sentence.
First 萌える is pronounced moeru.
The sencence makes me think he/she loved the thread
to the extent they were highly motivated/
horribly haunted to keep posting on it/reading it,
because the thread was extremely to their taste.
And I'm sorry they sound not well-educated to me if
they often use 萌える (of course, I know they may be
just kidding, though).
Sorry to post three times in a row, but
I think it's better to explain about one more word(めちゃめちゃ)
so that you can understand the sentence more clearly.
So めちゃめちゃ is used mainly in three ways(all of them very slangy).
A) (as an adverb) really, extremely, all too, or something like that
Sample:"めちゃめちゃ良い" means "really good"
B) (as an adjective)(in head)confused, deluded, messed up, etc.
Sample:"頭の中がめちゃめちゃだ" means "I'm confused"
C) (as an adjective)(about things such as a place), littered with sth, in disorder, messed up, etc.
Sample:"部屋がめちゃめちゃだ" means "My room is messed up".
>>79-81
Thank you very much.
I'll translate the sentence as "This excellent thread is hot."
>>75
Context: magical.m0ds.jp/futaba/uma/imgboard.htm
(Replace m0ds with mods. Sorry, that one particular link is still in a spam database @ http://wakaba.c3.cx/antispam/ - I took it out, but it still needs to be updated on here)
Your explanation does make sense anyway, thanks for that. I just can't come up with a single English term that would be equivalent to it, though.
My next question: what means「ブッチギリ」?
Example:
ええ。ブッチギリです!
ee . bucchigiri desu !
>>84
Where did you take the sample from, anyway?:)
As an adjective, ブッチギリ sounds to me
very informal and a bit old (sometimes humorous),
meaning "going farther than the point that others expect", "winning sth such as a race completely", "doing something far better than expected", "dominant" or whatever.
The point is, you can use ブッチギリ
when you do something far too enough so
nobody can catch up with you and they are left far behind.
I hear the expression, such as when a marathon runner
wins a race a minute or two before another runner is finished:
彼/彼女はブッチギリで優勝しました.
And it's usually used in a affirmative way like
I said above.
If you use ブッチギリ in a negative way, however,
you're very sarcastic.
A sample context: if your friends and
you watch a baseball game together and
your favarite team is beaten by 10-0 and you get very mad
at and derogatory to the team, you can say to your friends(who
may love the opposite team), "今日はブッチギリで負けたよ".
>>82
Sounds great!
You're very concise and to the point!
If I were a good translater, I could think up expressions
that sound natural to English-speaking people.
All I can do is explain wordily.
>>85
Thanks.

仏恥義理
Question:
What does レロレロ mean? (rero/relo/lelo/lero?)
http://kao.wakachan.net/r/res/894.html
Dizzy? Drunk? Head is spinning?
>>90
You guessed right.
I guess it comes from this expression ろれつが回らない, meaning
somebody got so drunk that they don't pronunce clearly or
what they say makes no sense.
And レロレロ may sound like "dedo dedo" in English.
I mean the "Flap T sound" like ta in 'wha"t a"re you doing?'.
Thanks. I'll use "inarticulated speech" for my translation. Or maybe "mumble-mumble".
>>93
Don't mention it.
I'd say "mumble-mumble" suits the manga, because レロレロ is what's called a imitative word.
What' 『マジか』?
that was an answer, not a question
Are you kidding?
>>102
It stands for commercial on TV:"C"o"M"mercial.
Thank you very much, that was also what I thought.
Another question: What does マジ or マジレス mean?
Also I'd like to know what "コラ" means (in combination with other words).
>>マジレス
-a serious response
or more practically,
-a naively straightforward reply to a joke post
>>コラ
-"photo-shopped"
> -a serious response
> or more practically,
> -a naively straightforward reply to a joke post
That makes sense. How to translate this into a phrase of two or less words, though?
> -"photo-shopped"
I guessed as much.
Thank you once again!
BTW, that one thread in /music/ reminds me... What's 電波? I've figured out from the context that it probably means some altered state of mind like being drunk or in trance. Wondering if that's right, though...
>>108
I don't know in what context 電波 was used, but if you are referring to the specific online usage, you're almost right. If someone says something silly/ridicurous/over-the-top, sticks to it and never adopts to more acceptable one, then we often refer to them as if harmful radiowave. Note: 電波 means radiowave in Japanese.
I don't know if these are subsculture-specific terms, but what do うまろ and マターリ (or マタリー) mean? I see them all the time on the 2ch boards I read.
Also, this is a very late response but 萌え also means "to have a crush on" someone.
>>113
マターリ is very informal, used alomst all the time only online, meaning being laid back. On the other hand, I have no idea what うまろ means, though. I guess it was a typo, or someone just tried to spread it, but it still has not been acceptable to most of us even if you see it often.
Good thread. Now can I ask the following:
新潟ガンガレ、超ガンガレ
Why is this on the main site? What is Gangare?
ぬこ
Why is this used instead of neko?
乙
Is this something ilke "thanks"? (osu?)
デス種
Desu-tane? Is it something like "overdone/cliche"? I've seen it used a lot in anime circles.
パクリ
Ripoff? Hackjob?
gangare = ganbare(no meaning on 2ch local)
nuko = neko(no meaning on 2ch local)
乙 = おつかれさま(2ch local))
デス種 = GUNDAM SEED DESTINY (SEED DES)
http://mbs.jp/gundamseed-d/index2.html
パクリ = Violation of writing or Unauthorized copying , etc..(not hack)
乙 = zzZZZzz ?
乙(おつ) = おつかれさま(not sleep)
Oh, okay. Thank your for explaining.
>>119
乙!
おつかれさま doesn't mean not sleep, but it means "Thanks for the hard work" (Otsukare-sama)
I was always wondering about desu-tane. Thank you soooo much 119!
Does 'tanasinn' mean 'harbl'?
No, yes, no and no.
>>125
Don't think. Feel and you'll be tanasinn.
Most of us have the "Don't think." part down pat.
尻穴貸してやって Is this another one of those kanji-swapping things?
and it seems like a lot of Japanese refer to John from Ask John as ジョン妻 (John-tsuma) WHY?!
Never mind, they were not referring to John when they kept barking John-tsuma John-tsuma. But someone explain the first thing pls kthx.
Woo!
I keep seeing 池沼, and it's usually used to refer to idiots/dim-witted people/slow people/mentally retarded people
My question is, why?
And how is it read, chishou or ikenuma?
知的障害 -> 知障(ちしょう) -> 池沼(ちしょう)
THANK YOU so much! Really, thanks.
右翼左翼
↓
うよくさよく
↓
ウヨサヨ
Is that how uyosayo comes out? And does it refer to idiots who bring politics and off-topic discussions into threads? Or does it mean trolls (people who like to provoke others and create arguments)
does anyone know where (ry originated from? just like how DQN is originated from a show.
I think it's short form for 略 (ryaku) which means omission
When 略 is pronounced "hobo", it means "or summat". So they're simply abbrievating the wrong pronunciation. oh 2ch
ryaku = noun & hobo = adverb
nobody pronounces "hobo" in this case. シッタカ
Please note that a lot of (online) vocabulary is now covered here:
http://4-ch.net/2chportal/
Here's another one
When you say you're sick of something or tired of something (e.g. anime) you say 飽きた (akita) but a common kanji 'misconversion' is 秋田
also, another one is アフォ for アホ (cos of the f/h thing)
English idioms are very interesting but I sometimes encounter so mysterious ones I have no idea where the meanings come from. I looked up "Go the whole hog" in my learners' dictionary and found it meant "do something completely/thoroughly" or something like that. And I also looked up hog in it. The dictionary said it meant pig. But it was hard for me to understand why going the whole hog(pig) meant doing something thoroughly. Could you explain it, please?
To be honest, I've never heard the phrase "Go the whole hog" in my life. If you said it to an American, they probably wouldn't understand you.
But I agree, many english idioms can be very confusing.
>>144
Thanks for your information. I didn't know it wasn't used in the US. In Japan, both English and American must be mixed up. I couldn't figure out which is which, though...
Someone answer >>137

I am English and I have heard this expression before. It's quite old fashioned, and you wouldn't hear 'city/rich' younger people saying it, but more 'country/rural' people may well use it.
The expression apparently was made popular by an American political campaign which used it as a catchphrase: it referred to butchers at the time (1820s) asking customers if they wanted 'the whole hog' or just part of the pig.

Excite and Babelfish always have very amusing translations... The thing is they don't cover less common expressions like 'go the whole hog' so it won't translate that into "going the whole way".

きちがい (kichigai - hiragana) 気違い (kichigai [correct])
Kichigai means crazy.

Refers to the 'column' for email (ran = column sort of thing). You know, the blank space in any form where you put it in (thus "Email:").
It should be メール欄 or something like that, but obviously the "me" in "meran" is referring to "me" in "me-ru (mail)".
キチガイ(気違い kichigai)
Basicaly the word "キチガイ" is one of the "放送禁止用語=Broadcasting prohibition term" in Japan.
But the other day the former Minister of Finance Shio-ji(塩ジイ=塩川正十郎)) used this word on TV.show.(藁

So I suppose Kichigai is the equivalent of "retard" in English?
Question:
what means グダグダ/GUDAGUDA?
I see it used in blogs, maybe it means "rambling"?
>>157
Yeah, you're right.
If someone's talkings are rambling and not understandable, you will feel the talkings are "グダグダしている" in Japanese.
If something that has to be done is left unfinished or ends up in an anticlimax, some of us also use it to imply that it should've been done earlier. Note: the word often expresses one's irritation if someone speaks against other people.
Well, I feel this expression is very slangy/informal, though.
>>156
How does "retard" sound to native speakers? Very offensive? I couldn't translate it correctly, but from my point of view, people use Kichigai to attack verbally perverts and trolls, especially in 2ch.
>>158 Thanks.
Does the word have an origin?
Maybe a combination of ぐずぐず (or ぐちゃぐちゃ) and だらだら?
>>157
“グダグダ” is Adverb(副詞) which is used mainly with the verb such as "Write" and "Speak".
グダグダ言う。グダグダと述べる。etc.
And it means too much redundancy for others.
For hearing or reading side, グダグダ speech or sentences is not what other than boredom.
Synonym is "ウダウダ(uda uda)"
Maybe "グダグダ"'s original style was "クタクタ(kuta kuta)"
"クタクタ"=It seems to have been exhausted.
Both クタクタ and グダグダ are possible to use it for the expression that shows the conditions
of the body in the same meaning(fatigue). But "クタクタ" is not used for above mentioned case.
もう俺の体はクタクタ(グダグダ)だ!
*Because my specialty is not a Japanese grammar, 100% cannot be guaranteed.
>>161 Thanks, I like your explanation.
Insted of <<156
If you say to the other, "You are Kichigai", it is the same as the "Declaration of the War".
But originally this word"キチガイ(気違い)"contains not so much bad(offensive) words.
In this case, 気(ki) means not a air, but Mind. 違う(chigau) means different, then キチガイ
means "Different minded (person)."
This word becomes "Broadcasting prohibition term"now, but old person uses as a nomal word
such as 「キチガイ病院」=Mental Hospital(Hospital with Iron-barred window).
The meaning of the word changes in the age passing.
※Supplement
As you know, there are many Personal pronouns in Japanese. Nomally the second personal
pronoun(You) is used as 貴方(anata) or 君(kimi) in Japanese, but with use these words it does
not start quarre or fight.
In this case(quarre or fight),we have to use different Personal pronouns,貴様(kisama) or お前
(Omae). Those second personal pronouns are very vulgar word now in Japan. Nevertheless,
I beleave that more than 500years ago these word was very porite and elegant words.
・貴様=貴(Nobility)+様(Polite Additions )=Noble you ←original meanings
・お前=御前[様]=御(Polite Additions )+前(in front of me)+様(Polite Additions )
=Noble you who stay before me ←original meanings
*お前(Omae) is vulgar word now ,but お前様 or お前さん is still polite ward (you will find this
word in Period (adventure) drama.
*The public place and the person who is not well known you do not have to use貴様(kisama)
or お前(Omae), but in the intimate friend it will be no problem to use it
A littele bit similar to the usage of German Sie and Du.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you finid the word 「喪前(momae)」 in 2ch. this is the intentional mistake of 「お前(omae)」
same as「漏れ(more)」⇒「俺(ore)」
Wow, thanks for the interesting posts.
As for 'retard' it's quite an offensive word still. Unlike 'bastard' and 'idiot', when people use 'retard' it seems that they're more likely to be serious. So if you hear someone calling you 'retard' it's more likely they mean it rather than just being 'friendly'.
And I've heard Kisama and Omae... how offensive is "temee" then? てめー
It is just as bad.
・テメエ/テメー(Temee ,Te may) is also offensive word for 2nd person pronoun(You).
In 2ch world(or in the Manga),it sometimes changes to チメー(Chimee, Chi may).
I think the word テメエ is changed from てまえ(手前 te mae).
手前(te mae)is old polite(euphemism) expression of " I ". 手前=this side
There might be a question ,“Why dose it change "I (Te mae)" to "you(Te mee)"”
Unfortunatly I am not a linguist.
I can find the same changes in Osaka diarect.
・ワレSynonyms(considerably offensive) of 貴方(you) in Osaka area.
ワレ(wa re), Basically ワレ(我/吾)=我(we)/吾( I ) means "We or I".
exmp.of Osaka style expression (please try to translate these)
* こらゴミ!ワレはあちこちで悪臭を漂わすな!迷惑じゃ!この生ゴミが!
* 臭いんじゃ!ワレ!迷惑なんじゃ!ワレ!ひっこんどれや!
* ワレは何を聞いとったんや!!(激怒)
* ワレはコンビニやスーパーで値切るんか?(爆)
[ワレ(wa re)=you] is only popular in Osaka area or in the Yakuza Manga.
----------------
・自分(Ji bun)
nomally 自分 means " I "but in Osaka area , this means sometime different (You).
One day when I was in Osaka I was asked from Osaka natives.
Osaka "自分は何処の出身か? "Where am I come from?"
I "貴方の出身地を私は知りません"I don't know where you come from"
In this case,I had to translate the word 自分( I ) to ⇒貴方(you)
Then his question meaned "Where are you come from"
The expression that the meaning becomes opposite by the region is an embarrassed
thing even for Japanese.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
*Old expression of "You" which is only find in Histrical (Samurai) Drama/Manga.
・ヌシ(nu shi) original meaning ヌシ=主(master).
・ウヌ(u nu ) offensive I dont know this origin.
・貴殿(ki den) very polite (貴=Nobility)+(殿=Lord)=you ・貴公(Ki kou same as 貴殿)
↑Antonym of 貴殿 is 拙者(setsu sha) (拙=inferior)+(者=person)= I
>>166 Thank you very much for the informative post!
Now I want to ask, what is 中田氏して (nakata-shi shite) and 四様/4様 (yon-sama)
oh, you mean 中出しして"nakadashi shite" maybe? XD

What is "Chu-Bo"? What is "Aori"?
Please explain!
>>173
nomally chu-bou means, Chu bou=厨房(kitchin) , but there is Homonym
Chu bou= 中坊 = 中学生坊主(junior highschool kids)
⇒net初心者(Beginner who don't knou net rules)≒DQN
cf;
Shou bou=消防(Fire fighting)⇒小坊=小学生坊主(elementaly school kids)⇒ worse than Chu bou
Kou bou =工房(Atelier)⇒高坊=高校生坊主(senior high school kids)⇒a little better than Chu bou
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pse imagine from followings
aori=煽り(n)
aoru=煽る(v)
the chinease charactor "煽(sen) is consist of 火(fire)+扇(fan)
therefore "煽"= to strength the thermal power , add a fue etc.
*Idiom
煽動(sen dou)=Agitation
煽動者(sendou sha)=Firebrand
simply, chu-bo means a brat, aori means a flame, i guess
I sometimes see 「ホロン部乙。」 in threads about Korea.
Now, I know 「乙」 means something like "thx" (thanks) but what does the rest mean?
I assume it has to do something with emulating "warota" in Korean?
「ホロン部乙」means 「ホロン部の工作員の方、お疲れさん」
ホロン部=在日の対2ch工作員
かって、煽りで「日本は滅ぶ」と言うべきところを「日本はほろんぶ」とやってしまった。
>>178 事故レス
**ホロン部とは**
朝鮮民族学校ホロン部
一定時間帯(主に夕方)になると一斉に擁韓・媚韓レスを付ける在日工作員および電波レスをする人のこと。
書き込みが可能な時間が決まっているのか、ある時間になると一斉にレスをしなくなることから、
半島系学校のクラブ活動ではないかと噂されていた。
ある時そういう電波の一人が、日本語で「日本は滅ぶ」と書こうとしたところ、
「日本はホロン部」とミスったままレスをしてしまったために、以後そういう定時で書き込まれる
擁韓・媚韓レス・レス人を「ホロン部」と呼ぶようになったとさ
すんごいまとまった丁寧な解説です、、、、
ここの人たちが理解できるかどうか。^^;
I don't understand the "holon part" thing...
but I get the gist, I think. 「ホロン部乙」 means a (Korean or foreign) "agent" in Japan who tries to disrupt the general conduct by posting foolish slander about Japan - right?
ホロン部(horon bu) means 滅ぶ(horo bu=be ruined,fall).
A Korean agent tried to type "nihon ha horobu"(日本は滅ぶ), but he typed "nihon ha horonbu"(日本はホロン部) by mistake.
Since then 2CHANNELers call Korean agents "ホロン部".
So, ホロン部 makes no sense in itself.

I see that there is still confusion over what 801 stands for on http://4-ch.net/2chportal/
801 stands for YAOI (やおい). I don't know exactly about the origins of the term, but I figure it has something to do with
や(つ)、や(っつ) = 8
零/〇 (or zerO?) = 0
いち、いつ = 1
By the way, people, let's help out with correcting or coming up with appropriate board titles for http://4-ch.net/2chportal/ - the ones that still need attention have a question mark ("?") next to them. ヽ(´ー`)ノ
( ´д)ヒソ(´д`)ヒソ(д` )
「ヒソ」ってなんだろう
WHat's "hiso"? Is it a misspelling of "hin"?
hiso hiso = whisper whisper
コソコソ is a mimetic sound doing something out of sight.
シーン is a mimetic sound that something is not heard.
I think そ行 sound is often used for a state of hidden.
Question:
What means をいをい/woiwoi?
orz? ^_^;? マジか?
Is it a combination of わい/wai+おい/oi?
>>196
「をぃ、をぃ」 is mere a character play(Joke). Of course, formally is 「おい、おい」
I dont't know the ancent Japanese grammar, but in present Japanese
there is nothing that 「を」comes to TOP of sentences ,being used only
as a Postpositional particle(助詞=jyoshi).
*助詞(jyoshi)is no relation with 腐女子(fu jyoshi)
There is often using the expression that cannot be in BBS and speach bubbles in Manga similarly.
exmp.
・「あ゛っ!」、 「い゛っ!」
・「女性(じょせい)→ぢょせい」
おいおい means "Hey, Hey".
It have a nuance that "Hey, wait for it! you said/doing something improper"
>>198 Thanks.
What means ズッポリ/zuppori?
Complete? Full? End?
Examples:
焦ったのがいけなかったのか、シナリオの分岐点が見つからずズッポリはまった。そりゃもうズッポリ6時間 (泣)。
And from which word/verb does "Zuppori" come from?
>>201
'ri' at the end of an onomatopoeia turns it into an adverb (sort of like -ly in English)
ずぽずぽ + り = ずっぽり (deeply)
ひそひそ + り = ひっそり (quietly)
こそこそ + り = こっそり (secretly)
>>202 I see. Thanks!
What means ゴリゴリ/gorigori?
Force? Energy? Power? Vigor?
And from where does ゴリ/gori come from?
Example:
なんかゴリゴリと力押しで描きあげてしまった。
>>204
"ゴリゴリ(gori gori) " → Synonym "コリコリ(kori kori) gori gori>kori kori
I thought "gorigori" and "korokori" are only onomatopoeic word which came from
the appearance with hard touch (stiffness).
======================
Word that repeats the same sound is called 繰り返し語(畳語) .in Japan.
*繰り返し語(畳語) =kurikaeshi go (jou go) → repeatedly a word
〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜
>And from where does ゴリ/gori come from?
This question is very difficult in reality.
Perhaps, it is likely to have to go back even to the origin of "Repeatedly a word " in Japanese.
As I am not a linguist (only an engineer), I searched the web site about this and found this.
http://www.iris.dti.ne.jp/~muken/kokugo01.htm
I hope that you have a good translation soft wear.
The site explained comparatively politely with Japanese repeatedly word dictionaly.

>>205 <丶`∀´>Nida san about 「ホルホル(horu horu)」
We often see the scene in 2ch.AA(s-JIS) that Nida-san is satisfactory loughing "ホルホル".
The word "Horu horu" is neither Chinese, Korean nor English.
"Horu horu" is neither Korean nor English.
It originates in the name of the game software that was at the dawn of the personal computer in Japan.
The game software of the name "ディグダグ(Dig dag)" was put on the market from namco in 1982 for Fujitsu
PC FM7 & 8 (Dig dug is still sold in the market.)
http://qtchicks.hp.infoseek.co.jp/namco_digdug.html
http://namco-ch.net/digdug_digging_strike/index.php
Immediately, the game software "Horu horu" was put on the market from a certain soft house (1982).
http://retropc.net/fm-7/museum/compac/140603200.html
http://retropc.net/fm-7/museum/compac/140603201.html
Japanese translation of "Dig dug" means 「掘る(horu)掘る(horu)」.
As you can understand from the name ,this was the plagiarized game software.
The same act which was done by a certain neighboring country people was called "Horu Horu"by some
net persons in Japanese.. It has changed into Mr. Nidar's laughter while time passes why.

2ch.AAでニダーさんがホルホル(満足の笑い)している場面を良く見かけます。
「ホルホル」は中国語でも韓国語でも英語でもありません。
それは日本のパソコンの黎明期に有ったゲームソフトの名前に由来しています。
1982年に富士通のFM7、8用にNamcoから「dig dug(ディグダグ)」と言う名前のゲームソフトが発売
されました。(今でも売られています)
直ぐに(同年)「ホルホル」と言う名前のゲームソフトが某社よりも発売されました。
「ディグダグ(Dig dug)」は日本語に直すと「掘る(ほる)、掘る(ほる)」です。
之はその名前からも分るように、朴李(パクリ)のゲームソフトです。
同様の行為が大好きな某隣国の人達の行為を、日本のいくらかの人たちが「ホルホル」と言い始めた
らしいのですが、時が経過するうちに何時の間にかニダーさんの笑い声に変わってしまいました。

Very useful thread. What is 'merupo'? 2ch people often use it as their ID. Is it Japanese for 'anonymous'?
Also, is there a famous anime/Japanese show where people scream, "UNIVEEEEERSE!" Because there are many AA characters screaming "universe" on the 2ch Phantasy Star Universe thread.

The most notorious publisher to affect good-natured boys in Japan negatively for 30years.
A lot of boys went to the bookstore in the town to order the book on this publisher, and
coming home being gotten angry from the bookstore.

Yesterday I went to Yoshinoya, the most famous beef bowl chain in Japan.
There were so many people that I couldn't sit in the counter.
Then, I happened to see the billboard that said,"Discount \150"
Were the Yoshinoya staff fool or crazy?
Hey, you, the not so frequent comers in Yoshinoya, don't come to Yoshinoya attracted by the "discount \150"!
It seemed that the four people were a family. The family in Yoshinoya! Were they serious?
The father said I would order Tokumori, the biggest size in the shop. I was embarrassed to see you!
Make room for me, and I will give you \150.
Yoshinoya should be barbarous. It should have the situation in which quarrels with the person across the U-designed table,
killing with knives.
I like the situations. Women and children, don't come there!
I could sit at last! Hearing what the person next to me, he or she said, "Oomori-tuyu-daku please", which meant a large serving and a large amount of sauce, please.
What?
This went out of fashion now. Be careful, a fool!
You ordered Oomori-tuyu-daku proudly, did you?
I want to continue to discuss that you really want to eat Oomori-tuyu-daku, well, for one hour!
Do you want ONLY to say Tuyu-daku ?
From the Yoshinoya expert's point, the more fashionable order between Yoshinoya experts is Negi-daku, a large amount of leeks.
Oomori-negi-daku, many Negis and a little beef, is most fashionable.
The most powerful order is Oomori-Gyoku-daku, a large amount of eggs
I don't want to persuade this to amateurs because you would be watched from the next visit to Yoshinoya.
In short, because you would be in a double-edged situation.
You had better eat a set lunch of Gyu-zyake, a set lunch of beef and a part of salmon.

Google seems to be not to correspond to the reduction unit characters.
1リットル=1g =1l = One Litter = 1000cm^3
If you are using IME, it is possible to put it out , only tying "リットル" ⇒"g"
Other reduced unit characters are possible also in same manner.
_、a、`、d、b、c、h、i
_=m(ミリ)=1/1000、a=c(センチ)=1/100、`=(キロ)=×1000
b=m(メートル) 、c=g(グラム)、`c=kg(キログラム)、d=t(トン)
h=W(ワット)、i=cl(カロリー)
You can make the idioms by combining these reduced characters
for exmp.
イ`=生きろ
dj=飛んどる
バiタ=馬鹿ロリータ
ロg=ロリっとる

Someone tell me what インピオ means other than a misspell of インポ (impotence). What's the significance? Is it supposed to be an insult? Who the hell cares? Kids are a nuisance. Or is it a reference to sth else?
I've seen a lot of "ちょww" on nicovideo. Could someone explain that one?
I'd like to know more about the emotes, and what exactly they mean. For instance (;´Д`)'`ァ'`ァ means fapping, right? And (´・ω・`) is shy?
"ちょww"="hey!(lol)"
(´・ω・`) my name is "syobon", means Lonesomely.
インピオ is nothing more than typo of インポ. I think impotence is worth insulting term. Doesn't it work in English?
Anyway, to be exact, they insult the one who mispelled it when they use インピオ.
ちょww is an abbreviation of ちょっと待て(笑). Literally, ちょっと待て is Wait a minute! or Hold it!. In this situation, Hey(, don't make me laugh/this is hysterical)! lolol.

This reply is late coming, but マジレス might be translated well by an acronym used on alt.religion.kibology back in the day: "YHBT", for "you have been trolled." Expanded often to "YHBT, YHL, HAND." which continues "you have lost. have a nice day."
We don't have clever words to refer to troll victims, though.
Can someone explain to me exactly what the hell is so funny about いいえ、ケフィアです。
What situation do people use it in? I watched the original CM and still don't get it.
Okay, this took me really long, but after being brainwashed by 2059309029409 videos on niconico, I think it's fair to say that I simply understand it that when anyone says "This is ________" the joke reply to say "No, it is kefir" (いいえ、ケフィアです。)
Meh.
[jap stuff]
hay 4-ch sensei i has another question
Why do Japanese refer to "cockroaches" as "G"?
Oh for fuck's sake, why didn't I think before pressing "書き込む". Of course it's because cockroach = "Gokiburi" = "G". Why did I keep thinking cockroach = kokiburi.
ちょっと頭吊ってくる
×ちょっと頭吊ってくる(Hanging head)

Also, G is the codename of Golgo13. It sounds really tough.

ローゼン麻生
Rozen Aso = Taro Aso. Named so because he is known for liking Rozen Maiden.
フルボッコ
Fullbokko. I think it means to be beat up rather badly.
アサヒる
Asahiru. Does this have something to do with Asahi Shimbun, which is apparently very sympathetic to Koreans and all things liberal? I know a lot of net-rightwingers hate them.
物売るっていうレベルじゃねーぞ
"This isn't on the level of selling stuff!" I dunno what's so special about this, I only have a vague awareness that the ×○レベルじゃねーぞ is apparently from Gundam or something...?
カワユス
kawayusu. Another way of saying kawaii. Popularized by Shouko-tan, was it?
ググレカス
gugurekasu. Fucking google it.
能登かわいいよ能登
Noto kawaii yo Noto. I don't think she's all that cute, but it's been used for many other things... nanoha kawaii yo nanoha
コンマイクオリティ
Konmai Quality? Is this a gaming term and does it have something to do with Konami? I don't play games so I dunno. Does it refer to idiotic kid gamers who can't even spell Konami?
セカイ系
Sekai-kei. A "genre" of anime. I can only think of SaiKano, which I disliked.
みっくみく
Mikku-miku. Referring to Hatsune Miku and a famous song utilizing Hatsune Miku called "Mikku-miku ni shite yan yo"... but well it plays on the idiom "bokko-boko ni shite yan yo" meaning "I'll beat it up for you."
痛車
Itasha. Cars with decals and other decorations that show off your wonderful otaku taste. However they are painful (itai) to everyone else.
聖地巡礼
Seichi junrei (Holy pilgrimage?) Going to real-life places that were either featured in anime/games or served as an inspiration/base for locations in anime/games.
ずっと俺のターン
Zutto ore no turn (It's always my turn!) Wasn't this spawned from that video of an awful episode of Yugioh where Yugi was pwning HAGAAAAAAA three ways from Thursday? He kept attacking him although he had already won the battle. It's used to imply that something is going to keep going on and on and it isn't going away, I guess.
And now I have a question.
Does 割れ = warez?
> Rozen Aso = Taro Aso. Named so because he is known for liking Rozen Maiden.
To be exact, he had been witnessed reading a manga "Rozen Maiden" in Tokyo International Airport.(Wikipedia)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aso_Taro
> Fullbokko. I think it means to be beat up rather badly.
Correct. It's an abbreviation for Full Power de Bokkoboko. Beat up at full power!
> Asahiru. Does this have something to do with Asahi Shimbun, which is apparently very sympathetic to Koreans and all things liberal? I know a lot of net-rightwingers hate them.
Wrong. To fabricate stories (based on alleged behaviour of the Asahi newspaper)

At the release date of Playstation 3, surging crowd caused panic in front of a game shop in Yurakucho. TV news show shot a guy who was shouting this line, and he became online legend.
> kawayusu. Another way of saying kawaii. Popularized by Shouko-tan, was it?
Perfect.
> gugurekasu. Fucking google it.
Correct. And offen followed by a description of imaginary ancient Roman thinker called Gugurecus.
Gugurecus
Gugurecus (date of birth and death unknown) was an ancient Roman thinker born in a city near Albania. His father was a bureaucrat of... blah-blah-blah.

> Noto kawaii yo Noto. I don't think she's all that cute, but it's been used for many other things... nanoha kawaii yo nanoha
No, Noto Mamiko's angelic voice is heavenly cute, seriously. (^^)
> Konmai Quality? Is this a gaming term and does it have something to do with Konami? I don't play games so I dunno. Does it refer to idiotic kid gamers who can't even spell Konami?
Not kid, but Konami themselves made this stupid misspelling in their games. Konmai Quality is used to tell how shitty Konami games are.
> Sekai-kei. A "genre" of anime. I can only think of SaiKano, which I disliked.
It's not only for anime but also all other cultural genres like novel, manga, etc. Usually in storytelling, a hero changes a social structure, and then the society changes the world. However in Sekai-kei, hero changes the world directly without any logical explanation. The most well-known example is Neon Genesis Evangelion. This genre bacame popular after Eva.
> Mikku-miku. Referring to Hatsune Miku and a famous song utilizing Hatsune Miku called "Mikku-miku ni shite yan yo"... but well it plays on the idiom "bokko-boko ni shite yan yo" meaning "I'll beat it up for you."
Perfect.
> Itasha. Cars with decals and other decorations that show off your wonderful otaku taste. However they are painful (itai) to everyone else.
Correct. But itai is not painful in this connection. The nuance is delicate, so I dare not to explain it here. >>325 is also correct.
> Seichi junrei (Holy pilgrimage?) Going to real-life places that were either featured in anime/games or served as an inspiration/base for locations in anime/games.
Correct.
> Zutto ore no turn (It's always my turn!) Wasn't this spawned from that video of an awful episode of Yugioh where Yugi was pwning HAGAAAAAAA three ways from Thursday? He kept attacking him although he had already won the battle. It's used to imply that something is going to keep going on and on and it isn't going away, I guess.
Correct. Often associated with the card Berserker Soul as well as Yugi's line "Draw... Moster card!! Draw... Moster card!! (endlessly)" and the heroine's line "Please stop, Yugi! Haga's life is already ZERO!!"
Oh, and about Kawayusu, her nickname is Shokotan, not Shouko-tan.

Exactly.
What about 麺?
What, you seen noodles used in an unusual context?
What do "ktkr" and "wktk" mean?
Thanks.
# "wktk" = Shortened form of waku teku, which is an onomatopoeia for showing anticipation.
# "ktkr" = Another short form for kita kore, which is probably closest to "woot" or something.
I hope this is write.
*right...
And if I'm not mistaken, gdgd is short for "gudaguda" which means tedious, drawn-out or sluggish (something along those lines)
I used to be confused for a while thinking it was "gd gd" (gd being short for "good" in English) and wondering why boring things were being called good...
>>337
You're not as bad as me, I assumed "wthk" was "what the heck" and "ktkr" short for "knigkt rider"
knigkt rider, lmfao
Thanks for today's chuckle, I admit that's kinda funny even if it might not be true.
K guys, I've been wondering for a while but what's "jk"?
Eg: 韓国でエロ規制したら、さらにレイプ率が上がるだろjk
(from itai news)
I know JK sometimes means "joshi kousei" but in this context what is it?

For a while now I've been rather curious on the meaning of 石バカ...
It's nothing more than a nickname.
For what?
For an annoying troll-er in 2channel. Maybe his real name is 石原 or something.
石バカ dont have meaning.and it is maybe his original word.
if it have meaning,it is not general^^

Okay, I gots a question.
「全裸で待機しています」と言うのを良く見かけますけど
なんで全裸ですか?
>>356
Internet meme ですね。
http://slpy.blog65.fc2.com/blog-entry-1094.html
Oh I get it! Thanks so much, that was a really informative (and funny link).
I get the impression tacking "全裸で" onto everything is an old gag by now though, and only lives on in "全裸で待機します" because of the uh... delightful image of anime otaku kneeling in seiza position in front of their tv stark naked waiting for their favourite animu to begin
what's an animu?
"animu" is an intentional misspelling of "anime".
Oh
Isn't it analogous to アヌメ

oh, bravo, very nice thread!
I've learned so much, so let me share with you some English idioms that you may not understand:
"Don't look a gift horse in the mouth"
Don't inspect the quality of a gift, just take it gratefully.
This phrase originates from the practise of inspecting a horse's mouth to determine its quality and health.
"Mind your Ps and Qs."
Behave nicely, and be mindful of your limits.
This originates from when bars used to serve beers in Pints and Quarts (Ps and Qs), a bartender would tell a patron to mind them, so they wouldn't get overly drunk and cause a disturbance.
Question: what does this mean?
くぁwせdrftgyふじこlp
Seems like someone mashed the keyboard with Microsoft IME but I see this ever so often, with only slight variation (like q instead of く or missing lp at the end, but the whole thing is basically the same).
>>208
As far as I know, "Merupo" refers to Merlin Prismriver from Touhou Youyoumu and a joke on Nurupo. I could be wrong, though.
>>377
It is one of those keyboard thingies that turned memetic for no particularly good reason (ever heard of DSFARGEG?). The keys that produce this sequence are qawsedrftgyhujikolp (basically, alternate between the top and middle row of letters on a QWERTY keyboard from left to right). Through a bizarre coincidence, this yields the perfectly readable "fujiko" in the middle, and that, besides the ease of producing the phrase, is probably what sealed its popularity.
>>208
メルポ [merupo]
ヌルポ [nullpo]
I think it is only reason that it looks like [nurupo/nullpo].
ggrks means, "Idiot, please search it on Google's site."
Sorry my wrong english.
Another english idiom is " it was a piece of cake" meaning it was very easy to do
>>377
there is also a wikipedia page on this

It might be interesting to the Japanese in this thread that, in English (especially Britain) the slit/opening in the head of the penis is called the 'jap's eye'.
