The pleasure of being nin nin'd inside.

Semen, in vagina, etc.

[Anonymous No.]

I think it's related to endorphines secretion derived from contact of a mucous membrane with seminal substances.

It's a blade (刃) and a heart (心) so it obviously means to kill.
Hope I could help you OP!

I don't get it?

It means "I'm a faggot who thinks that getting a tattoo of Chinese character on my arm will make as cool as those super awesome Japanese assassin guys I saw in that historically inaccurate movie once".

Yes, Japanese is a very compact language, you could fit a whole book inside one of those characters.

So, what's the difference between 忍耐 and 我慢?

Once I saw a guy with 安 tattooed on his arm which cracked me up because at the time the only meaning I knew for it was "cheap."

Then I later checked what it means in chinese. Apparently to them it means "peaceful," which isn't nearly as amusing.

Well, briefly, it means

AITE NO GOAL NI SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

>刃 (blade) + 心 (heart) = 忍 (endure)
>mutated 心 (heart) + 貫 (pierce) = 慣 (get used to)
Man, those Chinese guys who invented these things sure had some weird traditions.

I think it still means "cheap" on its own.

Why the fuck would anyone tattoo that on themselves? Getting a tatoo is already questionable, but then to go out of your way and label yourself as beta. I mean wow.

I'm uncertain if you meant what you just said. Peace be with you, still.

Sure it still means "cheap" on its own in japanese; I just assume the guy was only told the chinese meaning since it's unreasonable to expect an art school dropout tattoo artist to know its meaning in both languages.

It's not like English is any better when it comes to being ridiculous. A group of boars is called a singular of boar. A gathering of albatross is an avalon. For vultures, a large group is called a kettle, for crows a murder, for ravens an unkindness, for owls a parliament and for larks an exaltation.

It means calm/safe in Japanese too, just depends on the context. 安全 and 安心, for instance. 不安 too.

>>7353026
It's more the manly kind of peacefulness, and shows young maidens they can depend on you and feel safe around you. The girly peacefulness would is 静.

Comparing words to fundamental parts of a language's writing system is not appropriate for making a point. Nor is it really accurate since memorizing such rules is not requisite for functional communication, just proper communication.

Comparing word quirks to fundamental parts of a language's writing system is not appropriate for making a point. Nor is it really accurate since memorizing such rules is not requisite for functional communication, just proper communication. Except in very rare cases you can completely ignore those rules and few but very learned/strict people are going to know the difference.

It means to endure. 忍 nin　者 sha (ja), 忍者 ninja (one who endures).

It is symbolic in Ninja arts, traditionally. The sword represents the hardships, and the heart represents the soft and spirituality. Kind of like yin/yang. Without the sword there, it's simply a heart, and if you have a kind heart with no blade then you will be weak. If you have a blade with no heart, you will simply be tough, and not a kind person.

If you didn't look at it from that standpoint, it just looks like to endure hardship, while the blade is against the heart.
