Speaking of iraira, has anyone ever heard "wajiwaji"? My wife uses it all the time, but when I used it in front of a group of people, she laughed at me. Apparently it's not hyoujungo, but she wasn't sure if it was kansaiben, or just colloquial speech used everywhere. Anyone know?
Tokoro de, I didn't see translations for the first 2 sentences, so I'll give it a shot: 1) The long arguement wore my temper. Nagai kuchigenka wo shita node iraira shimashita. 2) His(her) being late made me impatient. Kare ga okureta koto de iraira shimashita. -----Original Message----- From: "Sara Brown" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Date: Sat, 24 Feb 2007 05:42:32 -0000 Subject: [Japanese_Language] "Ira-Ira" (Suru) I understand that "ira-ira" means "irritated, be irritated",etc. So how would the following be translated?: 1) The long arguement wore my temper. 2) His(her) being late made me impatient. 3) Don't fret the small stuff!. 4) He (she) has a short temper.
