Majide(マジで) Fun! Japan Words vol.20

Even though you may have missed the last 19 editions of Fun! Japan Words, this one may be worth more than all of them combined.

Well, at least I could guarantee that you’ll use this word more often than all of the others combined.

マジで?!(Majide?!)

It literally means “really”, and could be used in the exact same way the English word is used.

1) Expressing surprise or disbelief
“I met Brad Pitt yesterday”
“Majide?!”

2) Emphasizing
“You should try go to that restaurant! It’s majide oishii!!(マジでおいしい = Really tasty)”

Believe me, you’ll hear this absolutely everywhere, especially if you’re with young people.

Just throw it in to a conversation like you would with the word “really”.

Don’t worry, you’ll get the feeling immediately, majide.
