Comments: | Terms like "effing' and "frigging" are way off the mark. See: https://www.edrdg.org/wiki/index.php/Editorial_policy#References "the Eijiro glossary should not be the sole source of references for a proposed entry, although it may be used as a supplementary reference for confirming meanings. This is because the glossary is a collection of Japanese-English pairs which have apparently been collected from translations. In a Japan Times article Daniel Morales described it as "a smorgasbord of reibun and definitions, some of which err on the side of slang, often delighting the expat community." |

Comments: | reordered kanji. sanoku form is 忌ま忌ましい, oddly enough. sanoku defines using 腹立たしい (irritating; aggravating; upsetting) 忌忌しい should be low enough for [sK], especially since 忌々しい implies it is a possibility anyway. Our glosses do not appear in reverso. eow.alc glosses are illumuniting. https://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=いまいましい&ref=wl This appears to be an informal extension of 忌まわしい("to grate on one's nerves"). "damned", "effing" (fucking), are given, along with "cotton-picking" and "consarned". Reverso confirms this usage: A bloody dead man tried to kill me... ("bloody", used in several entries) Then when that darn levee broke ("darn") Those darn student loan people start calling How can I get hold of the ring? Devilish fix! (devilish) 忌々しいビデオを漏らすのを止めるというメッセージ <-> saying "Stop leaking my motherf*king videos", Seems like a mild expletive expressing irritation. That makes "annoying" and "provoking" more of a definition than a gloss. Some alternate suggestions: synonyms for "bloody": https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-thesaurus/bloody damned (slang) flaming fucking (taboo, slang) bleeding blooming (informal) freaking (slang, mainly US) rotten blinking confounded ruddy infernal (informal) deuced wretched frigging (taboo, slang) I threw a few of them into the "meanings" just to call attention to the issue. I'm not married to any particular terms. Again, for a considerably longer list of potential glosses: https://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=いまいましい&ref=wl |
