Another new poll concept

[Infidel]

Which do you think is the word most overused by new students.
1. Baka
2. Watashi
3. Omae
4. Anata
5. desu

[shoCk_x]

good idea desu

[leergierig]

May I suggest adding "sugoi" and "kawaii" to that list?

[hungryhotei]

Maybe soshite or nazenara?

[tanuki]

Does "yo" count as a word?

[clay]

I meant to reply to this yesterday, but something happened and... I didn't. Sounds like a good idea. I think the poll should be changed on a regular basis. In two weeks, Infidel, come up with another winner

[Kagemaru]

How can Romanji be left out in the cold like that?

[john2]

I was counting the writing system and not the word!,

[tōkai devotee]

what about, ええと？？

[Harisenbon]

だったばよ？


I actually haven't heard that one in a while... Thank the lord.

You're right... :/ You see how much I read Naruto.

Dude, this poll is hilarious. I vote for kawaii. Also this guy in my German class, who's hilarious, always says "desu" and "kawaii" to add more comedy to his German. :p

[katafei]

It is a funny poll, isn't it?
Especially if you consider about 80% (rough estimate ^_^) of visitors are beginners in the Japanese language themselves.
I wonder which word NJS choose?

I went for 'watashi', which is slowly gaining ground

Edit: and i love the word 'kawai'
not that I get to use it much...
