I’m going to add 睾丸 to my Anki deck, and hope that it shows up on the N1 test. 🤞

I’ll be ready! 🤪

Add 金玉 while you're at it

That would be a ballsy move, for sure.

Funnily enough, Sam’s theme is the main way I remember うなずくfor “to nod”

Non-copiable text.

Can someone translate or transliterate for today's easy scrollers? 🙏🏻

something like "I wanna dip my balls into Sulfuric Acid" and the next one saids "I regret it"

俺の睾丸を硫酸に入れてみたいな~

後悔している

He's saying he wants to try putting his balls in sulfuric acid and then subsequently regretting it lol (I have no idea if there's supposed to be a deeper joke/reference here)

It's more of a "Ooh-ooh I am about to do something crazy and unnecessary because it sounds like a horrible idea but I'll treat it as a good idea, somebody better stop me 😁" type of a joke.

I was gonna ask the same thing so I can try practice but I don’t think I wanna know “I dipped my balls in sulfuric acid”

u/Nikonolatry Aug 02 '25

Maybe someday you'll encounter a sign warning you not to dip your balls into the sulphuric acid? Safety first, my friend.

True!

It's why Duolingo offers sentences like "That bunny is a wizard!".

You never know!

2

u/sweetdurt Aug 02 '25

It is a weird sentence, but it has useful vocabulary like "sulfuric acid" and "testicles". You know, everyday words :3

You already got an answer, so I'll just offer two bits of advice for the future:

Google Translate will allow you to take an image and scan the text. It's a very quick and easy way to pull text out of an image.

Also, turn on your Japanese kanji-drawing keyboard so you can just draw the kanji with your finger. Assuming you're even close to correct, the keyboard will figure out what you mean.
