I wonder why “great” and “sword” need to be Katakana

Loanwords

[–] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I know, but why? Not trying to be a hater but why not just use the native words?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Same reason some English people will use Japanese words? I don't know.

Then why respond?

I didnt know if you knew the loan word thing.

Why ask?

They transliterated it as English: “Great” being written like “Go Ra To” or something similar instead of using the Kanji 大 pronounced as “Dai”. Same with Sword, they wrote it like “Sa Do” or something, instead of 剣 pronounced as “Ken”.
