And yes, she wrote it. I think oji-i-san translated it as bull****? But since Japanese has only a couple of vulgarities to match to the scores available in English vocabulary, I leave you to insert your own.  |
Ah, this is an interesting point. hmm...
Firstly, I think it's true that Japanese has few swearwords.
Typical ones are くそっ and ちくしょう (ちきしょぉー！), which ayu used here.
Both of them can be used in a same situation to damn that situation (or a person or anything you dislike at that moment).
And as you can guess from the fact that Japanese has few swearwords, I guess both of them are "weak".
Secondly, because ayu made up these lines (Let go!/(damn!, s**t!, or whatever)/I'll be a bad girl!) afterwards just for this blog to make this post funny, I don't know how often ayu uses くそ or ちくしょう in her real life. I didn't think deeply when I translated this line because I felt it's just funny.
So, why did I choose bulls**t?
The original meaning of ちくしょう is animal, cattle, beast, etc, and くそ is s**t. And I think the usage of ちくしょう and くそ is almost same. Having thought that, I picked up bulls**t because bull is an animal and the word includes s**t as well. haha, that's it but what a long comment!
Thanks for the translation as always, Misa-chan.
Let me tell you my suggestions when I have time!
