I have no idea xD she was in Hong Kong, I'm an American school, soooo. Maybe since it's an ex British colony, many people must know how to speak Chinese :3

smh she think she can speak japanese. watashi am so annoyed.
My kokoro has so many conflicting kimochis rn
You're not the first. Especially those people who speak Japenglish and they're like "OMG KONNICHIWA ___-SAMA!!!! YOR TOKEI IS LOOKING TOTS KAKKOI!!! KAY JAA NEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!" and just because of that they think they're the masters at Japanese. I'm not flutent btw.
those are called weaboos
Yeah I knew that but I always felt uncomfortable using that word since my friend had a phase like that.

uh. Sugoi!
oh god. a weeaboo tried to nickname me something ending in -kun once and i backed out of that entire relationship faster than i knew i could go.
My friends are weeaboos, but try've never gone as far as to actually nickname someone with Japanese titles. (We literally slapped egg onto our names and called it a day.)
I've always wanted to actually learn Japanese, so it's really annoying when you find yourself surrounds by people who think Japan is all about being 'kawaii'. not to be mixed up with Kowai
+10 points if they know ~20 words and they pronounce all of them wrong

I speak Chinese with my boyfriends family, and Japanese on the side. Weeaboos always make me feel embarassed or ashamed for liking to learn either language or be involved with certain traditions. (since my school offered Chinese and no Japanese class, you can pretty much guess what class they took and for what reasons).
I know what you mean. I've caught someone in a lie like that before. They kept saying to everyone they spoke Spanish. One day I came along and everyone was like "She speaks Spanish, she's been learning it since second grade". He just stares at me and then grins and says "Hola" in the worst gringo accent ever. I say "Hola como estas?". He then responds in English with "My name is ****". I said "Sorry, they said you spoke Spanish. I didn't know you didn't." Everyone started laughing and making fun of him. I just stood there confused and felt sorry for him. Spanish isn't my first language or even second, it's my third but I speak it semi-fluently. It makes me cringe when people claim to speak a language but don't. If you diddle/daddle in a language, then don't claim it. Just say you can speak a few things here and there. I spent a few years in Egypt, but I wouldn't dare say I speak Arabic. I know my way around, and know a few things here and there but that's it.

i'm not mean
When my friends and I were in Japan on our study abroad, we all spoke a gross mixture of English and Japanese
one of my friends even had to write a paper to get into a special English class the next semester and she said it was singlehandedly the worst English paper she had ever written
when we got back our English grammar had deteriorated pretty bad.... it was hilarious

This actually doesn't bother me. What really annoys me is when people chew their gum SO LOUD people in space can hear!
Weeaboos? I had to google it to know what this means. Is that the new fad in America?
I've never met someone who bragged about knowing Japanese and started throwing random Japanese words in their sentences non-ironically.
Seing a small group of people cosplaying in the street is the closest encounter I had with potential weeaboos. Never seen any in school, I'm kind of surprised this exists.
I personally dislike when people use words from other languages to describe something when they already have perfect words for it in their native language, it makes me cringe a bit.
People acting like anime characters makes me think of girls who use the baby voice to look cute. It isn't, please stop.

There's a group of Asian people at my school who declare themselves "otakus" (don't even get me started on that) and keep yelling stuff about "doki doki" on their "kouhai senpai". I thought they were joking at first and played along, but it started seeming like they weren't kidding... :|
