Anyone know where the ど in どタイプ (totally my type) comes from? I know it’s an emphasiser, just wondering where the root is.

Fascinating. I like the idea it came from the word Dreadnaut though.

I think it’s definition 2 here?
Like they’re trying to quantify the amount of shortage/suffering/unknowing-ness?
Link to the lyrics if anyone else wants to jump in with a better explanation

hmm… maybe putting it in hiragana doesn’t mean anything? this could be it.

It might also be a stylistic choice

i was going to apologize for so many questions, but then i remembered that’s a good thing.
what does ションペット mean? i found it in the lyrics of “dear” by pepoyo and there’s nothing in jisho. there is the english translation of that song, but… i would… like some confirmation before taking that as fact?

I don’t know if this is something you were thinking of, but I have this book, it lists similar looking kanji and sometimes explains etymology, sometimes reading hints, sometimes radical explanations.

how do you use ちゃらっぽこ in a sentence? is it like, just an exclamation, or it is a noun, or an adjective, or something? can it be used like:
ちゃらっぽこだよ
ちゃらっぽこじゃん？
I’ve never heard it. It’s listed as an interjection, but the dictionary does have examples.
However, my native speaking wife has never heard it before… Are you sure it’s not obsolete or rare in modern Japanese?
