How do you say "scary" and "awesome" in Japanese?
7 Answers
scary
kowai
can means
It’s scary.
I’m scared.
awesome can be translated to
sugoi ! (=great! ; informal, casual) which varies sugee ! sugooi !
subarasii (=great, wonderful; polite saying)
suteki (desu) (=wonderful)
scary would be kowai (恐い)
whereas awesome would generally be sugoi (すごい).
casual usage of sugoi would be sugee [male use]~
@amore:
kakkoi, although it can be substituted as awesome,
means cool (not temperature) more than awesome.
also, the kanji in your “怖い/kowai” means fierce, not scared.
