Haru-chan: Haru-chan and...
Nacchan: Nacchan's...
Both: Chokotto Chat!
Haru-chan: Hello everyone! Coming to you from Silicon Valley, we're bringing you our authentic, casual talk. In this podcast, we'll be chatting loosely—just like hanging out with friends at a cafe—about our lives, work, romance, and our real everyday life in the US.
Nacchan: Alright! Today's segment is starting too: Nacchan's Japanese Phrase Showcase!
Haru-chan: Yay!
Nacchan: The Japanese phrase we're introducing today is... "Yabai"!
Haru-chan: "Yabai," right? (laughs)
Nacchan: Here it is!
Haru-chan: Here it is! "Yabai," huh? Japanese people use "yabai" a lot, don't they?
Nacchan: They really do. I use it so much I don't even know how many times I say it a day.
Haru-chan: Yeah. Like "Yaba!" or "Yaba!" (laughs)
Nacchan: Exactly! Right. There might even be days where I only say "yabai." ...Okay, maybe that's an exaggeration (laughs).
Haru-chan: There are! (laughs) Definitely.
Nacchan: But "yabai" is such a handy word, isn't it? Today, to help everyone discover how interesting it is, I'd like Haru-chan to try the "Yabai Challenge"!
Haru-chan: The Yabai Challenge!? Wait, is... is something going to happen to me? (laughs) Am I gonna be okay?
Nacchan: You'll be fine! It's nothing dangerous!
Haru-chan: Like getting splashed with water or something... Is this "Yabai Challenge" really safe?
