  • Summary

  • Hey, guys! In this episode of The XQ Sumimasen Podcast, Scoey and I dive headfirst into the hilarious world of Japlish abbreviations that left us scratching our heads when we first heard them. From learning that “sumehara” isn’t a fancy dish but actually “smell harassment,” to realizing that “staba” is just Starbucks, we’re breaking down these quirky shortcuts that make Japan, well… Japan! We also share some laughs about body odor detectors (yup, they’re real), reminisce about family restaurants like Bikkuri Donkey, and swap stories about the weirdest abbreviations we’ve encountered. Got your own Japlish favorites? Drop them in the comments. Until next time, Excuse-me-massen, and... See ya!
