Long story short. I have a friend who's japanese. He uses a lot of dirty korean words and a lot of cuss words in korean, and he can get away with it because he's japanese. I want to start using dirty/japanese cuss words and say it's okay, I'm not japanese, and have people be okay with it and think it's funny.

Dirty/cuss words and phrases in japanese plz. Details on how to pronounce the words, cuz google doesn't do that. I can't say it wrong and have people go wtf is this kid saying.

this will solve any worries you could ever have, think of any singular word thats dirty and it will tell you it, also I'm not japanese in any way so I can't say anything, but most all asians tend to get very angry when the word "gook" gets thrown around. Its kind of like calling a Jew (like me) a Kike, or whatever the word of choice is . Sorry I couldn't be more help T.T

japanese is completely phonetic. Kuso is pronounced Koo-SO
u makes an oo sound. o makes an oh sound, a makes an ah sound, i makes an ee sound, e makes an A sound, like ate.

Really bad curse words in japanese are like idiot (aho), i studied it and i lived there for a bit, but I never learned any bad ones.

urusai means shut up. baka means idiot.

Why would you want to learn Japanese cursing? So you can get slapped by someone for using it just to be funny?

Sounds like you should grow up a little.

Imagine if a tourist came up to you and said fuck you bitch.

Haha. Ha. Really funny, right?

You might think it's all right to use with just friends, but it'll end up slipping in public, and you'll regret it.

japanese dont have "dirty" words. the worst things are:

omae - you (diminutive)
baka - stupid
baka-yarou - stupid guy
baka tare ga - stupid guy
aho - stupid
kuso - shit
kuso-yarou - shit guy (not as common)
manko - pussy (the actual genitalia, you dont call people this).
kono yarou - "this guy" (diminutive)
koitsu - "this guy" (diminutive)
aitsu - "that guy" (diminutive)
okama - gay (never heard it used as an insult though)

also, dont say these to japanese people. because it doesnt seem like an insult to you, but its not used in regular parlance and can be incredibly insulting to native speakers.

i asked my gf and she said "shine" is bad, but that just means "die" (in a commanding tone).

if you want to learn how to say them with the correct tone, watch this guy's movie: takeshi kitano. "brother" is a great movie.

edit: mizu above me is completely correct. but i am only imparting knowledge. if you want to use that knowledge like a retard thats your prerogative. =D

and he can get away with it because he's japanese

If he was actually in Korea, I doubt he could "get away with it" in any situation that wasn't between close friends.

i can help you

so this one kid in middle school taught me how to say stupid shit in japanese so i could go bug my other japanese friend

so here are 3 basic sentence structures that are nice for saying dumb stuff in japanese:
*insert name* wa sanko _____ moteru (so and so has 3 ______)
*insert name* no _____ wa kebukai/oishi/oki desu (so and so has hairy/tasty/big ____)
*insert name* wa _____ motenai (so and so has no _____)

and here are some nouns you can use to fill the _____'s:
-kintama - testicles
-ochingching - penis
-chikubi - nipples
-manko - vagina
-ketsu - ass

so get creative and mix and match whatever you want, it shouldnt be very hard

thats about all i know, but it's all i need to bug my friend

Stuff like omae and baka gets thrown around a lot in anime, can't be that dirty (addressing a stranger, especially one older than you, with omae probably is quite rude though).
Kisama seems to be quite the insult though. It's a way of addressing people.

Just go here and search for "derog". Should leave you with a bunch of derogative words.

Generally, you can already be very rude by just using inappropriate honorifics, so there's less need for actual cuss words I guess.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

As dAPhREAk says, Japanese don't really have dirty words. The worst ones you hear are like "shit" (kuso). There are no equivalents to the English really dirty words. Recently, you can hear Japanese people using English words instead, like fuck.

Most words like omae and kisama are merely rude ways of addressing people. But, if you say kisama for real you would probably just get laughed at (it has an anime feeling to it).

I just asked my gf and she said the same thing as dAPhREAk's: shine would be the closest word. Also, if you are a middle-school girl you could go for words like kimoi (disgusting).

edit: Obviously, I agree with mizU that you shouldn't be using these and that it's really childish to only learn such words.

lmao daphreak...and yeah mizu is also right.

Both you and your friend should grow up -__-;; take the high road on this one. Depending on how easily you are amused, it will be funny for maybe 5 minutes before it's just idiotic. I think mizu has some personal irks with it too but really in any language it's just a silly thing to do.

There's nothing wrong with that. Saying it that way sounds better and is more common.

edit: If you can call these words common, that is... ^^'

Yeah, but it's a bit weird to add honorifics when you are specifically using them as dirty words!

'Uzai' is good if a girl is being a real bitch. You better mean it cause they'll be pissef off. Works for men too, but seems to strike a chord with women in my experience

Maybe they've been watching too much hentai or something lol.

Honestly I don't think there are too many particularly insulting words. And yeah most of them will just make you sound like an angry anime character hahaha.

Just watch anime, and they use pretty retarded words

In Japanese, it's more about the verb conjugation that makes a sentence sound rude (in English, it'd be equivalent of using derogatory words and condescending tones) rather than explicit 'bad' words.

Really? You telling me that it is impossible for someone to control when they use curse words or not? I swear in different languages depending on the group I'm with. Korean friends I swear in Korean, Western friends in English. He wants to use Japanese swears to someone who is swearing in Korean....why not teach him a few.

The first words people learn in another language tend to be the bad ones as they're amusing and sink in easier. For example

Gye-sek-i-ya is son of a bitch in Korean....I learnt that within 8 hours of being in Korea...why do I remember it easier than say the korean word for jump? Because it's amusing to me to know things like this...also helps deal with general assholes.



As for Japanese swears, http://chromlea.com/japanese/insults.html it's always best to check google.

My favorite korean curse is this one
imi shimi pet pojida = your mother has a bald pussy
Never used...but such a funny insult to find lurking swear word lists.

I don't really get in what situation you would use those, cussing is very "standard" in Japanese compared to most languages, and you won't hear much else than "kuso". If you want to use derogatory words for people, you could probably just be creative. Kuzu, for example, means trash.

Yo, it's called playing around with friends. Why so mad. You must have no friends. Oh wait, the fact that you're a loser was already established when you put up your profile pic.

wow japanese really are the nicest people on earth if those are the meanest things you could say to a person^^
i mean for example you come home and find your girlfriend in bed with some guy so you say:"YOU!! (omae)" as opposed to like "you fucking cocksucker!!" haha
... also i thought okama was just crossdresser and not gay

agreed. telling someone to go fuck themselves and adding "please" on the end in a polite manner kind of defeats the point.

i have heard uzai (no real translation in english) and kimoi (literally, "bad feeling," but used to say "eiw," "disgusting," nasty," etc.).

shitsukoi is also good (annoying).
