JK

  • Today, I learned a slang phrase ‘jk (just kidding).’


    In Japan, jk is also used as slang, and it has two meanings.

    One is “high school girls (joshi kousei),” and the other is “by thinking it in common sense (joushikitekini kangaete).”

    Therefore, I think I can say something like “JK! She’s JK, JK. “

    (Just kidding! She’s a high school girl by thinking it in common sense.)

    By the way, if we search JK on Google Images of the US, we can see a lot of pictures of J.K. Rowling.

    On the other hand, if we search JK on Google Images of Japan, we can see a lot of high school girls.
