妻「Did you add rice to this onigiri?」 僕「Add rice…?What do you mean?」 妻「DID YOU ADD RICE!?」 僕「(え....?そういう言い回しがあるの…?)Sorry, what?」 妻「NVM. Learn English.」 僕「Sorry…」 妻「Ah I meant, 'did you add salt to this onigiri?'」 僕「いや謝ってよ。」

WRONG. always say ただいま. assert dominance, make the store your home and the clerks your found family
Konbini clerks say いらっしゃいませ but they don't want a reply. I've watched tourists say "Hi!" back. The clerk freezes every time. It's a sound effect, not a greeting. Just walk in. And just walk out.

How did "maji" become slang for "seriously" in Japanese? 🤔 Shortened from "majime" (serious), it morphed in youth culture to emphasize truth or surprise, like in "maji de?!" for "for real?!" マジ (maji) = Seriously / For real

There are actually two completely different 「そうだ」 in Japanese.🇯🇵 Don’t mix them up: 雨が降りそうだ = looks like it will rain 雨が降るそうだ = I heard it will rain One is visual. One is reported.
