What Do “uzai, kimoi, ukeru, dasai and hazui” Mean?
I’d say there is a lot of slang which is not only Japanese but in all of the languages have that. This time, let me introduce how younger generations use slang which you could often hear in many situations today!
うざい (うざっ！,うっざー！or うぜぇ！) (uzai)
Annoying / Irritating
“うざい(uzai)” can use used as the meaning of “annoying and irritating”. When you feel annoyed or irritated to someone or something, you would be able to use “うざい”. “うざい” stands for “うざったい”.
