Minato-ku joshi



Gorgeous ladies who’re on the hunt for “high spec guys”

Minato-ku joshi (港区女子), is a word that appears to have gained momentum in the last year or so. These are ladies—mostly university students and those in their early 20s—who love spending time in Minato Ward, one of the most expensive places to live in Japan. By Minato Ward, I mean the chic neighborhoods of Roppongi, Azabu Juban, Nishi-Azabu and Aoyama, where the so-called “high spec guys”—well-educated, good-looking men who earn a lot, such as business owners, doctors or elite salarymen working at big-name companies—live, work and party night after night. Minato-ku joshi’s sole purpose in life is to be around these men, using their youth, beauty, and wit to get what they want—be it free dinner at high-class restaurants, expensive gifts such as designer handbags and jewelry, or connections with celebrities and other rich and famous guys.

The Plentiness Of Woman Types In Japan: From ‘Bari-kyari’ To ‘Himono-Onna’

Many Minato-ku joshi also happen to be kirakira joshi (キラキラ女子), who are leading “shining and glittering” lives. Simply put, they own everything—they’re pretty, have an amazing fashion sense, are cheerful, positive, and fun to talk with. They’re witty and intelligent, and most of them are successful in their careers too.

Japanese Online Newsletter Vol. 29 君と僕(きみとぼく)

友達(ともだち)
君と僕(きみとぼく)


日本語(にほんご)では、相手(あいて)のことを(きみ)()び、自分じぶんのことを(ぼく)()います。もちろん君以外(きみいがい)に「あなた」、(ぼく)以外(いがい)に「(わたし)」ともいますが、日本語(にほんご)では(きみ)(ぼく)という()(がた)最初(さいしょ)にできたと()われています。


これは、元々(もともと)あった言葉(ことば)短縮(たんしゅく)したもので、(きみ)は「君主(くんしゅ)」、(ぼく)は「下僕(げぼく)」から()まれた言葉(ことば)なのです。君主(くんしゅ)()うまでもなく「ご主人(しゅじん)さま」を意味(いみ)するもので、下僕(げぼく)は「つかえる(もの)」を意味(いみ)しています。(よう)するに(きみ)(ぼく)には主従関係(しゅじゅうかんけい)があるのです。


日本(にほん)には相手(あいて)(うやま)う(尊敬(そんけい)する)言葉(ことば)(づか)いがあります。(なに)かをお(ねが)いするときも「〜〜〜をしてください。」「〜〜〜をしていただけますか。」「〜〜〜をお(ねが)いします。」のように相手(あいて)尊重(そんちょう)した言葉(ことば)使(つか)(まわ)しが(おお)くあるのです。


(はなし)をするときに相手(あいて)(うやま)言葉(ことば)(づか)いをすることも日本語(にほんご)では大切(たいせつ)です。それが礼儀(れいぎ)(ただ)しい日本語(にほんご)使(つか)(かた)なのです。


Kimi to Boku



In Japanese, you refer to other people as Kimi” and yourself as “Boku”. Of course, you can say "Anata" for another person and “Watashi" for yourself as well. However, in the Japanese language, “Kimi” and “Boku” were invented first.


“Kimi” is a shortened version of the word “Kunsyu” and “Boku” came from the word "Geboku". Needless to say, “Kunsyu” means the “master" and “Geboku” means the “servant". In short, “Kimi” and “Boku” have a master-slave relationship.
 


In Japan, language is used to show respect to the other person. When you ask for something, you use phrases like “~~~ o shitekudasai”, “~~~ o shite Itadakemasuka” and “~~~ o Onegaishimasu." These phrases show respect to others.


It is also important in Japanese to use language that respects the other person when talking. This is how you use Japanese politely.
