Clan Friend SunLight Posted January 19, 2013 Clan Friend Share Posted January 19, 2013 So, I was watching Bleach again after a little pause, of course I watch it with English subtitles, or I won't understand it at all. Coming to the question: I heard that guy Urahara clearly saying 『あたし』 (atashi, in case the font doesn't work), now is a man supposed to say that, or he is a bit 'weird'? Is there a chance that a japanese male speaker would say あたし? And why I am there, I often hear characters saying things like じゃねえ, うるせえ, etc. but in a dictionary I only find うるさい, is that standard Japanese or not? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieMonsta Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 At last! Something about Japanese! Yes, a guy can use あたし(atashi), it comes the word 私(わたし、watashi), everyone can use it. Girls only use わたし since it's more "respectful" kind of word. Men mostly use 俺(おれ, ore) or 僕(ぼく,boku) which is more "manly". じゃねえ, うるせえ are I don't know how to say it in english... uhmmmm. "shortcut" kind of words? They're not words that you can write in an essay or any important stuff. Maybe kind of "txt" word? Which is usually said by young people. I hope I explained it clearly, English is not my Native Language. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieMonsta Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Thanks, I thought that atashi was female speech But whatever Urahara says, he'll still look awesome saying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
