Hola /jp/, Newfag here.

Explain this to me.

I know Okami is japanese word for Wolf but I've seen very often the word Rou or Roh or something like that being used for the same. Like in Jin-Roh, Rouga Fufu Ken or Garou.
Does roh/rou means the same as okami? are they interchangeable? How do you use that word?

>> No.2149962

Okami doesn't mean wolf, it means mistress

Jesus, you don't even understand the basics of Japanese? Kanji have different pronunciation when in conjunction with other characters sometimes.

>> No.2149973

Kanji, different pronunciations, etc...
Okami is the word. The other pronunciations are used when they're part of something bigger.

Not OP, but you're a faggot. Most normal people don't study this shit. Not everyone in /jp/ is a japanophile faggot that studies their culture constantly. In fact, I'd argue that at least 50% of us don't.

This has nothing to do with studying the LANGUAGE though.
