@kyota.ko: Japanese people turn anything into a verb. Even boba. —————— ▶︎ Hi, I’m Kyota Ko, the author of Amazon Best Sellers: —Folk Tales of Japan (audiobook available) —Underdogs of Japanese History (audiobook available) —Horror Tales of Japan —Love Tales of Ancient Japan —Zainins of the Tokyo Islands Please check out my books on Amazon or my homepage ☺️: https://kyotako.myportfolio.com/ #japanese #japaneselanguage #learnjapanese #boba
it reminds me of the joke that in english, any word but added with "ing" at the end makes it sound like a verb. "Im braining rn."

I remember someone trying to argue that you can’t just turn any word into a verb, that’s not how it works, and another dude responded “I can verb how I want.”

in portuguese, if you add "da" or "ada" at the end of an object, it means you HIT someone with that. garrafa? garrafada. cadeira? cadeirada. lajota? lajotada.

Your mention of ぐぐる reminds me of older Japanese Internet slang, ググレカス (gugure kasu - an impolite way to tell some “go google it yourself”), which then got shortened to ‘ggrks’ in forum boards

In polish we say "guglać" or "guglować" for googling things. I think that's universal at this point

Tapimōchinakakudasaimasu: it would seem, at first glance, that I would always have tapi’ed by the light of the crescent moon, whether or not that fell on the vernal equinox, by and by

Whenever I think English is overly complex and dumb, I always remember other languages have their own versions too
