Is it just me or IS EVERYONE IN THIS WORLD CHANGING THEIR NICKNAMES TO THAT THEY HAVE A DAMN JAPANESE SUFFIX? Oh wait, lemme just change my nickname to [KruzadeR]-chan so that everyone in the world loves me because I have a japanese suffix in my nickname. WAIT EVEN BETTER! Lemme change it to KruZchan. Isn't THAT JUST *`^?*`?_: IDIOTIC? Let's see:

Tabun - Tabun-san; Phoenix - Phoenix-san; Angst - Angchan; ~SpawN~ - Spachan; Little Washu - Washchan; Footman - Footychan; Makou - Makchan; [Warden] - Wardchan; ConfusedUs - Confusedchan; Lilazzkicker - Lilazzchan; Tekhead - Tekchan; Reboot - Rebchan; games keeper - gammychan; Oobey - Oobeychan; scalliano - scalchan; shambler - shamblchan; woodsman - woodychan; Kain Xavier - Kain-kun; Lee'mon - Leechan; L4mby - L4mchan; McDeth - Dethchan; Devlar - Devchan; Omega-X - Ommychan ; Dr. Jones - Jonnychan; mecha - Mechchan; Robby-chan; etc...

If your name doesn't appear in this list, please post here as I will turn your original and imaginative nickname into something lamme, Kawaii and chiibi with a japanese suffix in the end.

 :shout:  :shout:  :shout:

'Tabchan' would indicate that you were nicknaming a child, which is, needless to say, somewhat offensive! Tab-san is much preferred, if you want to go 'Japanese' on me :]

WAI! WAI!    SUGOI!!!!   Supaa kuru Kuruseidaa-chan! :D  :D  :D  :D  :D

Demo, watashi wa "Kain-kun" desu.

Phoenix-san will suffice.  Domo arigato, Mr. Kruzader-san!

I don't even have to use language tools to translate that.

"Aru yu seru Kami-sama, Margaret desu?" ;p  (Note:  I have no clue if "seru" is correct.  All I know is that "th" is often substituted with "s")

I could do Spanish if you'd prefer, but I'm very rusty.  I've forgotten how to conjugate for  future tense and past tense.  So the most you'll get from me is a bizzarre comment in present tense such as this...

"!Mi perro es mi esposa y me encanta!"

So, I guess I'd be "Rob-san" or "Robby-chan" then...

Yeah I know how it is like. Anime nerds who are not Japanese that act Japanese. That drives me up the wall.
Oh and BTW... Bonzai!!!!!!!!!!!  :ninja:

Is that bonsai (the tiny artsy trees) or banzai (the yell of passion - a.ka. three more rounds, please!)? ;]
Is 'sama' a common suffix? I was under the impression that it was only useful for addressing the highest of daimyo? Anyway, sensei has been rather cliche'd, which is a shame (partly because Japan(ese) rocks and their language is beautiful - and partly because sensei deserve respect). Oh well, fun stuff :]

Heheh. I didn't say you said that (ad infinitum) - I merely wanted to show what the official (and not the kiddie-slang) use of the -sama extension is.

Also, 'banzai' was a perfectly 'ordinary' and meaningful word long before it became a popular shout and/or name for TV shows, bars and the like.
It's more of a general Asian term, instead of something Japanese per s?. It could be translated more like 'give three cheers!' or 'to good health' - which, in characters, literally reads: 'ten thousand years'. Meaning 'long live' and thus cheering and praising the emperor. It seems to have become a battlecry after that, in WWII.

What drives me up the wall are white boys who act like they're black boys who grew up in the projects, drive riced-out Hondas their rich daddies bought for them, and have more money invested in their !@#!@# crap bass thump speakers than I have in all my computers put together.  Don't even get me started on the word "bling"... or "hizouse", and if anyone EVER tries to Sha-nizzle me or anything of mine I'll turn you into a pincushion.

I wouldn't care so much how they act and dress if it weren't for the !@#@!# bass thump crap, but please.. you're trying to be "original" how, exactly?  By looking, dressing, and acting like every other white boy who watches MTV and BET does?  Oh yes, and wear pants that actually fit.  You look like the bloody dolts you are walking with one hand holding your drawers up like that, and didn't anyone tell you that people laugh behind your back when they see you walking around with your hand on your crotch?  It would be sad if you ever had to run for your life wearing getup like that.  Trip and fall square on your nose you would when your pants fell straight around your ankles, and it'd serve you right too.  It's one thing to want to be "expressive" in some kind of style, it's another to be completely impractical and unoriginal about it.  But then, who am I kidding?  I almost forgot the kind of individuals I was talking about here.  I mean, if they actually thought for themselves they wouldn't do any of that stuff to begin with.

And yes I'm ranting.  This is the forum for it.  Yay!  :rules:

Oh I second that to the 'T'. And share your feelings. I mean, talk like a normal human being not shit like. "Yo whaz crack fazzizle pimp daddy yo?" Speak f-cking english tard.

Watashi ha no Hannah ai suru

/me giggles
:P

:huh:

Geeze, I thought you'd all get it, with the name Hannah in there! lol

Roughly translates to "I love Hannah". :p

Who is Hannah?

his mommy :)

Uhm, no. Just a girl I like. :shifty:

Hehe  When I was studying Japanese for fun, the most I taught myself was how to decipher katakana and hirigana and a few select phrases.  The tutorials I was using taught basic phrases, but they didn't really explain the syntax of the language to me for me to really grasp and understand other than reading it.  Most of the stuff I can say is stupid crap that just stuck with me.

So in that regard...

Watashi wa baka no Amerika-jin.

Bum, bum, bum!

Yep, I said I was a stupid American.

(In German accent) ZEE AMERICAN!
*Kain-Xavier crashes through a wall, grins slyly, and shoulders his Thompson*  :D

:!:
*ignites Footman*
MOERO!

Aremican = Stupid American :evil:  , so I was right after all. Don't worry, Portuguese = Selfish, Jealous, Traitor & Stupid Portuguese.

NEW JAPANESE LANGUAGE ATTACK DETECTED in "The new B-Day Topic", made by Kain-Xavier. To equalize this situation, I am going to say something in Spanish & in French:

*  "Que pasa? Porque el Japon?s? Le fran?ais est plus tr?s joli. Je pense que le anglais est horrible est n'est pas joli."

*

Ah yes Anime fanboy jibberish. For when you want to sound like a moron but arent into ebonics or 133t speak.

http://www.yamara.com/axe/ (http://www.yamara.com/axe/)

By your logic, every person living in Japan would fall under that catagory, assuming you're talking about speaking the language, itself.

otherwise, uhhh... carry on, then.

It clearly says "anime fanboy j(g)ibberish". Not everyone speaking Japanese will be both an anime fanboy and talking gibberish, but I'm sure there will be a few :]

Remember, what is known as 'English' in some forms of the use of foreign language in Japan, is known to us as 'Engrish'..

You know, come to think of it, I don't think anyone makes fun of Dutch.  :surprise:

It doesn't feature prominently on the 'world stage' - probably in part because the Dutch are known for their keenness to learn and use other languages and hence it isn't heard much: especially not by English speaking crowds.. It does sound 'funny', if I'm to believe Jess or Lamby ;] - a bit less so than German, I'm willing to bet, but it would come close if it were mimicked in movies etc. I'd be willing to hear that, sometime..

It is spoken in the Bourne Identity, in which Jason manages to pump out one line of, to my opinion, rather authentic sounding Dutch. But that's hardly making fun of it. :]

You think you got it hard? ALL the English make fun of we Welsh. they also seem to think we have unnatural relationships with sheep! (not lambys, the real ones). but i think we have a better flag.

Ah, but this was only regarding the language. Most of the world's inhabitants think we walk around on wooden  shoes, eating tulips and smoking weed while we plug our fingers in dykes.
I thought the sheep-shagging was © by the Scotsman? :]

In English Tab, 'dyke' has two meanings. which kind do you mean? And do you say you don't wear clogs? I admit that the times I've been to Holland (a few but long ago now) I didn't see any, except on my then girlfriend (german). On the sheep thing, I must admit I've never heard it said about the scots. They are renown for being drunk all the time, and having the worst diet in the world. Its intresting to know what other eurofolks think of us.

That's part of a joke - I'll leave it up to you to figure that one out (if you need explainin', try the intarweb ;))

Hmm, the skinning crew I used to hang out with was pretty keen on the Scottish == sheepshagging thing, just like they were on the Dutch == parsimony clich? :]

Criminals and Jewish? That's the oddest generalist view I've heard yet. Although the words 'addiction to abortion' by themelves top that ofcourse. Interesting :]

The welsh don't have a royal family. the english killed the last welsh royalty hundreds of years ago. the scots signed over independance, the welsh have never signed anything, just lost a lot of battles. (sad but true my freind)

*skims through the ranted posts* who really gives a flying fudge anyway? if people want to use suffixes let them :P we all have our fetishes ;) you hate anime? GREAT! you love anime? GREAT! but who cares? and so what if your not japanese? just cuz your speaking the language doesnt mean your pretending to be that race. thats like telling all the people that learn other languages that they're pretending to be german or mexican or whatever. although i have to agree with Pho, peolple who really DO try to pretend to be some other race or whites acting like rapper black dudes......very annoying.

Don't be hatin'.  :D

I like anime. But I'm not going to mix languages just because of some small vocabulary I learned through animes. Believe me, you have never heard how these suffixs sound when mixed with my language... It makes me cry to see such profanity to my language. Basically, ppl that talk use suffix while talking japaneseare normal, ppl that mix these suffixs while talking any other language besides japanese are waps.

PS : waps = wannabe japanese ;)

yeah i see what you mean. acutally im a HUGE animetard ;) but ironically for all the years ive loved it never cared to have the suffix at the end of my name. its like "retardochan" xD....... :zzz: so tired *remembers working her 5 hr shift with no break*  :(
