<< review queue entry 59677 - submitted by 'texh' >> Had a discussion with several Taiwanese friends that suggests a 宅男 would rather stay at home on his holiday rather than go out into the real world; an unadventurous person; etc. ie homebody https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E5%AE%85%E7%94%B7 ------------------------------------ Editor: I used a chunk of K's definition. Well, they copied a chunk of ours! We got the best of that exchange, though. K copied "derived from Japanese otaku 御宅男 house male" from us. Unfortunately, 御宅男 isn't a Japanese word at all, let alone "otaku", and "otaku" doesn't mean "house male". |
