Just a joke on WK’s part. He is one still, though.

Personally, I was disappointed to discover that they didn’t list Eric Cartman as a synonym for 権威. Thank heaven for user synonyms.

No, but now I will always know this word now haha! Thanks for the awesome mnemonic. Especially as the pronunciation makes me think of “Kenny” from South Park! 
Respect mah authoritah!

Oh trust me, I know that. Huge South Park fan here. I’m referring to the “reading” of the word…not the meaning. Meaning = cartman, reading = Kenny.

Lol! I never even thought about that connection. Awesome. Yup, this needs to be official.
[For some reason I thought you were talking about Cartman’s pronunciation of “authority”, not the Japanese pronunciation of 権威.]
