Hungry or Angry?

M; Hey, Japanese mass start got a gold medal. Nana Takagi won the second gold medal!

F; Yeah…it’s amazing and the female curling team got the bronze medal. It’s a dramatic victory!

M; It was so exciting last night, wasn’t it?

By the way today’s topic is about another gold medalist.

F; who is that?

M; Chloe Kim, At 17 years, 296 days, who is youngest Olympic gold medalist of women’s half pipe on snow.

F; She is Korean American whose parents immigrated to the U.S.

M; She was born and brought up in the U.S. but this time she won the gold medal as a US team in parents native land.

F; She can choose nationality by herself when she gets 20 years old.

M; Well, in the US they can allow two nationalities but in Kore as well as Japan it’s allowed only one nationality.

F; America seems freer than ours.

M; Yeah….it’s different up to the each country. But she is an American who speaks native English.

She tweeted such word.

“I’m getting hangry” when she was waiting for the race nervously in the cold bad condition.”

F; Isn’t it typo “hangry” for “hungry”?

M; Nope! It’s funny that such a blended words are used by young people.

F; Blended words?

M; Yes, it’s blended “hungry” and “angry” = hangry

F; Oh…..sounds interesting! Are there any other blended words?

M; let me show you next time.

F; Okay.

  2. In your blog’s conversation, there were unknown words for me.
    They are “typo” and “Nope”.
    So, I checked on the net and understood them.
    “Typo” is an abbreviation of misspellings or mistype.
    “Nope” is a word that is used instead of the “No” to say when the reply of denial. This is a slang, very informal language.

    By the way, last night a storm of excitement got through all over Japan because Nana Takagi got a gold medal in the mass skating and the girls’ curling team won the bronze medal at the end of the Olympic Games. This Olympic Games were lots of highlights and entertained us in all over Japan.

  3. Sorry for sending comments late.
    I can’t wait that knowing about blended words.
    By the way,
    Today we hiked with kanjiki at Kurehayama.
    The weather was good, so people came more than expected.
    I was tired because snow was soft and difficult to walk.
    We always enter the hot spring when the mountain walking is over.
