What does Kasa mean in Japenese?

Kasa can mean a few different things.. It directly translates to "shade" or "umbrella", but it can also be said to refer to varieties of traditional Japanese hats. This is an infrequent term when referring to hats, due to the fact that "kasa" becomes the suffix "-gasa" as the more specific name of the hat is more commonly used (ex. Jingasa meaning "war-hat").

Where can you find Romanji Japanese words?

What word do you want in romaji? Type "how to say _____ in Japanese" into a Google search, and romaji for the word will come up so you can pronounce it. By the way, it's "Romaji" not "Romanji". Roma is the Japanese word for Rome.

In Japanese what does are mean?

Kore (this), Sore (that, near the person being spoken to), Are (that over there)

Alternatively, 'are' is a verbal exclamation indicating confusion, like someone saying 'huh?' or 'wait, what?'.

Improvement:

'Sore' means 'that' and is used in case of referring something close to the listener and far from the speaker. 'Are' also means 'that' and is used when the object of reference is far from both listener and speaker.

Corrected the first part then saw it was already addressed in the last part. Definitely use "are?!?" when surprised, confused or searching for something.

Why doesn't Japan have the letters Q U Y Z?

Because the Japanese spoken language is not based on the Latin alphabet, but rather a specific syllabary that make up 50 syllables (in which the ordering is referred to as gojū-on [五十音], similar to how the rest of the world spell their ABCs, but in Japanese, the order is in A-I-U-E-O). For written scripts it would reflect that in two different styles: hiragana and katakana. In addition, Chinese ideographs (also referred to as kanji [漢字]) are also used in conjunction with the aforementioned for specific terms (e.g. certain nouns and verbs) to complete a sentence.

"In the ways I have heard it, it means "Idiot,"same as "baka,"but perhaps with more emphasis making it "big idiot." I'm not Japanese, but I watch a lot of manga, so I just go by context."

There are no actual English Translation of the word "Bakero". It is just a bad word with a general meaning depending on how you use it. It could be used as idiot as what he had said, or as some other bad words such as stupid, moron, etc.

Actually, it's baka yarou. You must have heard it being said so fast that it sound like bakero... It means stupid... the yarou is actually an impolite way to refer to another person... like "ano yarou" = that bastard (to that effect). Saying Baka yarou is like saying "that stupid bastard"
