Welcome once again, to the fascinating world of the Japanese language.
\nIn everyday life Japanese love to abbreviate words and phrases. However this can be confusing at times.<\/p>\n

This month’s Japanese phrases.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

DS<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cDS\u201d is a shortened form of \u7537\u5b50\u5c0f\u5b66\u751f “danshi sh\u014dgakusei” (meaning a primary school boy) but only refers to a particular type of student. It is mainly used in the fashion industry to refer to very stylish and fashion concious primary school boys. Under the school system in Japan, a DS will be aged 6 from 12, and the number of DS boys is rapidly increasing, so many fashion shops especially for primary school aged children have now opened there.<\/p>\n

Please don’t mistake this with the Nintendo DS – you won’t find any games in a DS fashion shop!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

JS<\/strong><\/p>\n

JS is a shortened form of \u5973\u5b50\u5c0f\u5b66\u751f “joshi sh\u014dgakusei” and is the female version of a DS. These are very cute and fashionable primary school girls who can shop for JS fashion in their own section at the types of shops mentioned above.<\/p>\n
