That is NOT Japanese.

It means "Daddy" in Chinese.

No, Japanese and Chinese are NOT similar. They are NOT even related to each other linguistically. Study both and you will know what I was talking about today.

It means just "Daddy".

お父さん

This is dad in Japanese, just to show you.


My Life Sucks- The kids I babysit have drooled, ripped or drawn on all of the cards and put the cars with the little people in the microwave!

I have no Friends- The cats have scratched and destroyed all of the DVDs!

I always owe someone- In fact I put two os in it!

I always ruin my clothes with Bleach!- The show is so dom suspensful I spill my grape soda on them!

But . . .I'll live.
