While learning Japanese I picked up on the word "Kawai" (Ka-waa-ee) - cute. While in a little gift shop one day a half dozen girls from the local high school came in and looked at this framed picture of basset hound and all of them let out in their (correct version) cute squeaky little voices, "ahh kawai-so ne". Ne - sorta translates into "isn't it".
So I learned a new word. Kawai-so must mean very or extremely cute. Went on a date that night with this Japanese girl I had been trying to go out with for sometime. As we are leaving my car and heading for the club I tell her that her blouse is really cute, (kawai-so). She stopped rather abruptly turned and smacked me hard across the face. The night was done. We went to the club be she went off and hung out with her friends and would have nothing to do with me. When I got home early the next morning I went straight to my dictionary. Kawai - cute Kawai-so - pathetic. > The hardest I've ever been smacked by a girl in my life > was in high school. > She said something (I can't remember what) and I replied > (thinking I was > agreeing with her): "Well, that sure is an oxymoron.". > I got slapped across the face so hard it left a bruise as > she yelled "what > kind of moron did you call me?!"
