So a couple videos back, on my Mt. Takao autumn leaves video

在之前我去高尾山看紅葉的視頻裡

A couple of you guys noticed that in one of the scenes

有好幾個人留意到在其中一幕裡

there's a Japanese sentence and at the end I wrote a "w"

有句日語  然後我在句尾寫了個 “w”

I got several comments asking what that "w" meant

我收到好幾個問 “w”是什麼意思的留言

from people saying that they've seen it on the internet before

留言者說他們之前在網路上看過

Yes, this is probably the most important Japanese internet slang that you can learn

是的  這或許是你能學的最重要的日本網路用語

So if you remember anything from this video, make sure it's this one

所以如果你將記住這視頻的內容  一定要是這個

You will see it all the time and it's very useful

簡單來說  就是英文裡的 “lol” （laugh out loud, 意思為 “大笑”）

In Japanese laugh is "warau" It looks like this

在日語裡笑是 “wa-ra-u”  長這樣子

If you write that in English it is "warau"

If you wanna laugh a lot you can just put lots of Ws!

如果你想大笑只要放很多 “w” 就可以了！

You'll see this all the time on Twitter, YouTube, FB, everywhere

你常會在推特  YouTube  FB  各種地方看到

I definitely recommend using it, it will make your Japanese look very natural

我強烈推薦你使用  它會讓你的日語看起來很自然

Another Japanese slang that you might see a lot on Twitter is "nau"

另外一個你可能常在推特上看到的 日本網路用語是 “na-u (音譯:拿屋)“

這就是英語的 ”now“ （意思:現在）

For example "karaoke nau" means "I'm at Karaoke right now!"

例如說 “カラオケなう” 的意思就是  “我現在在卡拉OK！”

So when you are doing something right at the moment, and you post a status

所以當你現在在做某件事  然後你發佈一個狀態時

Those are really the only 2 Japanese internet slang that I see a lot

那兩個是我常常看到的兩個日本網絡用語

that are very common and everyone knows them

But there are lots of other Japanese internet slang

但是還有很多其他的日本網路用語

that are used in places like NicoNico or 2ch

I was in Akihabara the other day and I found these internet slang cookies

那天我去了秋葉原  找到了這些網路用語曲奇

So I thought it would be fun to open these up and check them out

所以我想說將這些打開看看應該會很好玩

and see if we can learn some Japanese internet slang together

然後看我們能不能一起學一些日本網路用語

So you can see there are a few on the front here like kwsk, wktk...

你可以看到在蓋子上有 kwsk  wktk

Maybe that one's like "sumimasen"? I dunno

然後這個很像 “sumimasen (對不起/失禮了)“？ 我不太清楚

Let's open up the cookies together and see what they are

You can get these in Akihabara at Animate, I think I got them at

你能在秋葉原的 Animate 買到這些曲奇 我想我是在那裡買的

Ok the first internet slang cookie is this kanji

好的 第一個網路用語曲奇是這個漢字

According to the internet slang guide that comes with the cookies

It's otsukaresama, so a short way of saying otsukaresama

這是 “おつかれさま (意思:辛苦了)”  所以是個簡短的說法

This is not the kanji for otsukaresama, the actual kanji is this:

這不是原本的漢字 原本的漢字長這樣子

But because this kanji is pronounced the same way

但因為這漢字的讀音和原來的字是一樣的

Some people may use this for otsukaresama

有些人會用來寫 “おつかれさま”

Which means "Good job!" or "Thank you for your hard work!"

意思是 “做得非常好!" 或 "工作辛苦了!”

People say it once you've finished doing some kind of task, or work or school or something

人們會在完成某樣任務 工作 下課後 之類的時候說這句話

I swear I had seen this somewhere else before coming to Japan

我發誓我在來到日本之前在哪裡見過

The three characters orz are supposed to look like a guy hunched over on the ground

這三個字orz代表的是一個人彎腰跪地的樣子

You use this when you are disappointed or tired

Whenever you would be like hunched over on the ground

I did not know that was a Japanese one, interesting

我不知道這是日本的網路用語  很有趣

I've been curious to find out what this wktk one is

我一直很想知道這個 wktk 是什麼意思

I've seen this on the internet before, but not too much

我在網路上見過  但不是很常見

So it's probably more on websites like 2ch and stuff that I don't go on very much

所以應該比較常在我不常去的類似 2ch 的網站看到

Let's figure out what this means because it's really bothering me

我們來看看這是什麼意思  因為我真的很在意

Waku waku is like "waku waku shiteru" "I'm really excited!"

wakuwaku 通常說成“waku waku shiteru” 意思是 “我好興奮！”

Teka teka means like shiny, so I guess you're so excited that you're shiny?

tekateka 是閃亮的意思 我想應該是說你興奮得發光？

So I guess you use wktk when you're really excited about something

所以我才你會在你對某樣事情感到非常興奮時用 wktk

Another one I have been curious about is kwsk, I have no clue what this one is

然後還有一個我很好奇  但完全搞不懂的是 kwsk

Omg, this one means kuwashiku it's short for kuwashiku

天啊 這是 kuwashiku 是 ku-wa-shi-ku 的縮寫

So when you want somebody to explain something more in detail you can say kwsk

當你想讓對方深入解釋時  你可以說 kwsk

There are a couple in this booklet here that I didn't get the cookies for

然後小冊子裡還有幾個我沒拿到曲奇的

because I've seen these ones used quite a bit on Youtube and such

Ria is short for "real" and jyuu is short for "jyuujitsu"

”リア (ri-a)“ 是 "リアル (ri-a-ru)” 的縮寫 然後 “充 (jyuu)“ 是 “充実 (jyuu-ji-tsu)” 的縮寫

"Riaru" which is like "real" or "real life"

"リアル (ri-a-ru)” 的意思是 “真實” 或 “現實生活”

And jyuujitsu is kinda like "fulfilled" yeah that's probably a good way to say it

而 “充実 (jyuu-ji-tsu)” 類似 “圓滿充實“ 嗯 這或許是個貼切的說法

So it's people with a real life that's very fulfilled and happy

所以有充實且快樂的現實生活的人們

你會叫他們 "リア充“ (現充) （意思為三次元住民）

You'll often see people referring to happy couple as "riajyuu" and stuff like that

你常會看到人們指說一些幸福的情侶為“現充”之類的

Other ones that I have seen before are this one

So when you're typing on a Japanese keyboard, say you wanna type the character for "ka"

當你用日語(羅馬音)鍵盤打字  假設說你想打 ”か (ka)“

After you type the "a" it will transform into the "ka" character

你打了 “a” 之後就會轉為 “か”

But until then the "k" will stay as alphabet

但在那之前  “k” 還會是個字母

所以要得到這個你需要打 ”u - p”

Because "p" isn't a Japanese character, it just stays like that as the alphabet

因為 “p” 不是日文符號  它會保持字母的樣子

所以打 “up” 的話就會拿到這個

所以這只是 “up”（上）的意思

So this "up" you will often see when people are referring to YouTubers

所以這個 “up” 你會看到人們常常用來指 YouTubers
