Muletta Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Just curious ... I have now seen a lot of "jajajaja" in open chat, various places - not adressed to me, but to other people.In my language it is a kind of a rude expression - but what does it mean here, in other languages? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muletta Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Hi Drew - yes, I follow you here...ja is yes, and when repeted it means in my language: "yeah, yeah, yeah...so fu***** boring" or "yeah, yeah, yeah, I will do it okay, and I wish you will just shut up!"... :matte-motes-sour: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muletta Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Hi Jack - okay, I see...It just means "laughing" or maybe giggles Thank you for explaining, and yes, now you are mentioning it, it is mostly from Spanish talking people I have seen it here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasmyn Vaher Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I am from Spain, and as someone else has explained here, I am completely sure that " jajaja" is exactly the same as hahaha or Lol. It's people laughing, so, no, it's not a display of rudeness at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muletta Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Thank you Jasmyn - I am glad that someone explains the expression to me, so I do not get it wrong, when I hear or see it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperB Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Yep agree.Im native spanish speaker, and Its spanish for "hahaha". "Jajaja" micmics the sound of laugh, since in spanish the "h" its mute, meaning you dont pronounce it, the closest sound of a laugh its "ja" . So if you read it, its not a rude thing but a laugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pussycat Catnap Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 For a second I thought '16' was posting on these boads again. That user used to toss out lines of jejejejejeje for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperB Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 "Jejeje", "Jajajaja" and "Jijiji" its all laughs in spanish. Its a matter of taste really to choose wich one you like the best. For some personal taste, to me Jejeje sounds like a cheeky laugh and Jijiji more like a giggle, and then jajaja more like a regular laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norway, Sweeden, Denmark? because that is exately what it means where I am from (Denmark) My teenager tells me jajaja many times a day *grins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muletta Posted April 21, 2014 Author Share Posted April 21, 2014 :matte-motes-big-grin:Yes, Madam Martian, you are right. It is a typical teenager expression in Nordic language, when they roll their eyes, and look at you, as if you are a leftover from the last century.

She wrote it just to be a little different, that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
