Utter rubbish including Japanese words in this definition edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The most well known pronunciation of shite is the first one which mean shit where the "i" sound is pronounced as in "ice" in english.

But the inclusion of the Japanese words are competely incorrect because they are spelt in romaji using Hepburn romanization. The spelling is therefore wholely artificial and has nothing to do with pronunication of shite in english. Moreover the Japanese pronunciation sounds nothing like the English pronunciation of the word despite sharing the same letters. In Japanese it would be pronounced "shee-tay" (して) and therefore nothing like the pronunciaion of shite in english.

They should be removed or its clearly shown that the japanese words are false spelling friends of the English word and are not even pronounuced the same way. 146.200.202.126 (talk) 10:24, 21 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
