Words of the day
- にんまり = (on-mim) with a smile of satisfaction
- ボコる = to be the hell out of. Maybe ボコボコ.

- 若輩者 = inexperienced, greenhorn person. 不束者 is more on incompetent side.
- 弱冠 = early age; youth. Can also just mean 20 years old. Sounds like 若干, but with a crown (and the latter isn’t even young).
- 専門外 = outside one’s area of expertise
- 提唱 = advocacy; proposal
- 量子 = quantum. That quantization theory and associated particles.
- 相対性理論 = theory of relativity. Also just 相対論. The first two Kanji is usually read 相対 (with a different meaning).
