All About the Japanese Word Sate
The Japanese word, sate, or in Japanese characters, 㠕㠦 means now, so, well and well then depending on the context. Sate can be used as a conjunction or interjection. Example Sentence An example of sate in a sentence would be Sate, doushiyou. In Japanese letters, or kanji, the phrase would be written as: 㠕㠦㠩ã †ã â€"よ㠆。 This sentence translates as: What shall I do now? Other Uses The website Self Taught Japanese says there are also some alternative uses for sate. The phrase â€Å"㠕㠦†(sate) and equivalent â€Å"㠕㠦㠣㠨†(satetto) have a similar meaning to â€Å"㠕㠂†(here we go). While they can be used to get the attention of another person 㠕㠦〠や㠣㠦㠿よ㠣ã ‹ (Well, lets try it), I more often hear this pair used when talking to oneself.
