Do you remember the feeling of nervousness when you see your crush? Or when your heart beats fast as if it’s thumping to get out of your chest? In Japanese, you can describe this feeling as “doki doki” (ドキドキ). The word itself is like the sound of a fast heartbeat. You can use this word as a verb, too, by adding ”suru” (する) to make “doki doki suru” ...
When you feel dizzy or giddy, you can describe the feeling as “kura kura” (クラクラ). Even though the act of being dizzy itself isn’t all that fun, at least the word has a cute ring to it. Use it as a verb by adding ”suru” (する) to make “kura kura suru” (クラクラする)
What’s a list of cute Japanese words without the Japanese word for “cute” in it, and that is “kawaii” (かわいい). While it translates to “adorable” and “cute”, this word covers a wider range than just that. You can call a kitty or puppy “kawaii”, but you can also refer to an action as “kawaii”. This is when the word holds the meaning of “adorable” that...
While “kawaii” is a common compliment, a step up from it is “kirei” (綺麗). This Japanese word means “pretty”. Not only does the word sound cute when spoken, but it’s also considered as a sweet compliment. You can say this to your girlfriend or among your group of friends (for the ladies). Since it has a more feminine tone, I don’t think it’s best to...
The Japanese word for smile is “emi” (笑み). The same kanji is used for the verb “to laugh” (笑う). Those are the common ways to express those feelings, but why not try a new word for “smile”? “Niko niko” (ニコニコ)is a cute alternative to refer to your or someone else’s smile in Japanese.
So we have a word for “cute” and a word for “pretty”. What if you want to take it up another notch? The Japanese word “utsukushii” (美しい)translates to “beautiful”. I think it’s such a lovely way to compliment your girlfriend or friends. When said, the word sounds extremely cute. It’ll melt her heart more than it’ll melt yours!
This next cute Japanese word is quite common to use as a nickname for someone. In fact, some people have their real names as this, too! “Momo” (もも)in Japanese means “peach”. Because it’s such a cute and endearing word, a lot of Japanese people would name their children or pets as “momo”.
Have you ever been confused, it’s like your head is spinning trying to process the information? “Mago mago” (まごまご)is the Japanese word to mean “confused”. Similar to dizziness, being confused is not the most pleasant thing. But at least the word is cute to say. Who knows, the pleasantry of it might even help with your confusion!
There’s a word in Japanese that translates to “scattered” or “disperse” and that is “bara bara” (バラバラ). However, if you only take half of the word, “bara” (ばら)actually is referred to a rose. You might want to be careful when referring to the beautiful flower a couple of times. If you say “rose, rose”, which is “bara, bara”, you might actually be co...
I find this next word extremely cute. “Hoshi” (ほし) is the Japanese word for “star”. I think it’s adorable because, not only is the pronunciation itself is cute, but it’s also because it’s close to the word for “desire” which is “hoshii” (欲しい). Try saying “hoshi ga hoshii” (ほしが欲しい): “I want a star”.
- 集中豪雨 (しゅうちゅう ごうう) — Intense rain. The Japanese language has quite a few expressions for rain. It’s beautiful when you think about it. One of the things that got this writer personally interested in learning the Japanese language was because it has so many words for things that we don’t exactly have in English.
- ドキドキ (どきどき) — Excited. This is another cute word with merit found in how it sounds when spoken: “Doki doki.” It’s more of an expression of excitement than a term for excitement.
- 可愛い (かわいい) — Cute. We have to include the summa cum laude of cute words to this list! “Kawaii” sounds as cute as the idea it expresses. The word originated from the phrase 顔映し (かお うつし) — “glowing face” which is used to describe someone who’s blushing from embarrassment.
- 痛バッグ (いた ばっぐ) — Painful Bag. The term “painful bag” sounds a bit rough. However, 痛バッグ is actually a pretty cute trend in Japan right now! 痛バッグare really cute backpacks that feature a front PVC window which allow the wearers to showcase their favorite miniature collectable items.
