Slang changes all the time. Today I introduce a slang I came across recently while I was watching a YouTube video. The young people creates slang quite often and start using them.

What does [Kitsho] mean?

[AkKKIieome] is abbreviation of “Akemashite Omedeto gozaimasu” 「Happy New Year」

[Kitsho] is an expression mainly used as a slang among young people and its original words are such as [kishoku warui」[kimochi ga warui], [Gurotesuku], [bukimi], which means [gross]. [disgusting], [weird] etc in English. when people feels these they tend to use.

The Origin

Kishoku warui (気色悪い） became kishoku (きしょく）, then to make the word much stronger, hash, it became Kitsho (きっしょ）。

Example of use

「その服装，デザインがきっしょなんだけど。」「That cloth, the design looks weird!!」

「（SNSの気持ち悪いメッセージを見て）これ送ってくるの、普通にきっしょ」「（looking at a disgusting message） whoever sent this, it is just disgusting!」

Hope it is informative and interesting to you.
