WordList Letter - P


Umi - It means Sea. "Hoshi no umi" translates as "Sea of stars".

Un - Yes, yeah, uhuh. Used in informal speech. Its very common, normally you get a small head nod, with your Un, so cute >_<

Ureshii - Happy, glad. It is often used on its own as an exclamation to indicate that the speaker is happy, a female speaker also would say, "Ureshii wa.".

Urusai - Noisy, loud.. Used on its own (often yelled) the speaker indicates that there is too much noise and demands implicitly silence. So the English translation of Urusai would be: "Silence!", In the imperative form, it means "Be quiet!".

Usagi - It means rabbit.

Uso - Impossible!, It can't be!, You must be lying!, Literally: a lie! This expression is used very frequently when the speaker cannot believe his or her eyes or ears, the situations where a "You must be kidding!" would be used in English. However, it can also mean what it literally is: a lie so "Uso da" translates as That is a lie. So the correct translation depends on the context. “Uso Da!” is a buzz word derived from the popular murder mystery series, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, (shortened to “When They Cry” in the English version),  the phrase can be translated as, “That’s a lie!" or “Lies!” in English.

Usotsuki - Liar, its also the tenth single by Japanese recording artist Aya Ueto.
