what does Garrett mean in japanese

Harold 01-24-2008 09:00 PM

Garrett isn't a Japanese word... ?
Is that someone's name? I'm confused as to what you're asking.

saxman66 01-24-2008 09:41 PM

oh. I am sorry. it is my friends name and he wants to know what it means. any help.

Hatredcopter 01-24-2008 10:23 PM

Why would it mean anything in Japanese? It's not a Japanese word or name.

Are you trying to ask how to say "Garrett" in Japanese?

If so, it's pronounced Gyaretto, and written like this: ギャレット

If you're actually asking what it means in Japanese, the correct answer is that it means nothing at all.

very well :) "cansu" in japanese lol :):)

Well, "Garrett" derives from an old German/Norman surname meaning either "brave spear" or "rule of the spear". So what you need to do now is find the words that express those same ideas in Japanese and you're set! Have fun.

Never mind, I wanna do it XD

--Spear
--Rule (in the sense of govern, manage, preside over)

I guess if you wanted to make a phrase out of it, you'd need の...

In that case.
Or

--brave, strong
--Spear

I like that one better... But I still think I'm doing it wrong. Anyway, the second reads Gousou or Gouyari.

Galette? maybe? a type of Crepe made from Soba flour.

cansu? is it spell like kansuu?
kansuu in japanese is function.. usually used in math, and something concerning your senmon ...

I've never known that to mean brave, rather: strong, manly, hard and such words.
