Hentai and Non-Hentai Sound Effects and What They Mean
Introduction:

This document is a work in progress, usually officially updated twice a year, April and October.

The original version was compiled by Dom, or Bill The Cat, in HTML format, and intended for
general public use. See J apanese Sound Effects and What They Mean.

(No, I did not get his written permission to use his definitions. But if it is a problem, Im more
than happy to rewrite this entirely and delete any of his links, including the ones tagged to the
image on the bottom of this introduction page that I took great care in placing!)

With tremendous help from my friend, Humpty, of Dirty Translated Mangas, I have added
more terms to the list, most NOT for general consumption, hence the change in the title. And
since then, Ive added even more terms and made more corrections.

I copied the information from the original HTML format onto an MS Word document for ease
of editing. The idea, with health and stamina permitting, is to be able to update the list from
time to time especially when I translate/edit mangas and H-mangas.

Anyhow, I present it to the adult public (you are over 18, arent you?) in PDF format for ease of
transport, and its alphabetically bookmarked for ease of looking up definitions.

For those of you who prefer a web-format (coz disk space is a valuable commodity), I highly
recommend The Jaded Networks site.

Onomatopoeia (and not Mesopotamia?):

I think the hentai stuff should perhaps be called Uratopoeia but I digress

A particular Japanese SFX can mean various things for various situations by various authors
(for their own various reasons), and interpreted in various ways by various translators (for
those of us who invariably like variety). Some SFXs may be used in combination with other
SFXs; some SFXs, or combinations thereof, may be written separately for emphasis within the
same panel (example: doki-, ), but can be considered as part of the same action.
Because of this, many SFXs can have multiple meanings and are dependent on the action drawn,
as well as ones interpretation of that action.

I do welcome the public, as always (for there are those of you who know much more than I do),
to let me know of any new definitions, or any changes or amendments to existing definitions.
Please. ^/\^

Quick Guides

The following are pages are my own quick guides or notes that I made for myself to basically
help me distinguish and look up J apanese characters written in Katakana and Hiraganawell
quickly. Especially during those crucial moments when I needed help most! They were originally
written in a Notepad text document, and were not presented in any alphabetical, phonetic,
hieroglyphic, or any other particular order. I was literally typing things whenever I learned
something new and placed them where I deemed appropriate at the time.

Nonetheless, I thought I would present it here as a quick guide to help other noob translators and
interested parties. Eventually, as this document evolves, I may add, correct, and change things,
including the order of the character listings. (Ill probably end up putting it in alpha order for
ease of looking up things well see.)
