舎弟

しゃてい
This word originally means “younger brother”, but nowadays, this is spoken by Japanese mafias, means like “henchman” or “subordinate” who is under tutelage.


Hello, I may not understand English very well and I may lack words but I will try to understand you.

If you have questions about my post or Japanese customs, don't hesitate to ask.
