The weather sucks…
Sometimes you want to say “It sucks!” in Japanese, right?
If you want to say “It sucks” in Japanese, you can say “Saiaku!”
Today I’m introducing how to say “It sucks” in Japanese.
“最悪! (Saiaku!)” = ‘It sucks!’
The word ‘最悪 (saiaku)’ basically means ‘worst,’ but it also means ‘sucks.’
You can say ‘It sucks!’ just by saying ‘saiaku!’
ジュースこぼした！最悪！juusu koboshita! Saiaku! (I spilled my juice! That sucks!)
Also, ‘— wa saiaku’ can mean ‘— sucks.’ If you’re talking about somehing that happened in the past, you can say ‘—wa saiaku datta’ or ‘—wa saiaku deshita. (polite)’
あのレストランは汚くて最悪だった。Ano resutoran wa kitanakute saiaku datta. (That restaurant was dirty and it sucked.)
チケットなくしたの？それは最悪だね。Chiketto nakushita no? Sore wa saiaku dane. (You lost your ticket? That sucks.)
Summary: How to Use ‘Saiaku’
I summarized how to use “saiaku” in a table. desu/deshita are the polite forms.
| It sucks! | Saiaku (desu)! |
|---|---|
| A sucks. | A wa saiaku (desu). |
| A sucked. | A wa saiaku datta (deshita). |
