The other day, I asked my friends about "My boom" in English.

"What is your "My boom"? sounds like this.

But he couldn't undestand what I meant of course.

This is created word by Japanese which sounds like English.

It means that "what you are into at the moment".

There are lots of Japanese words like this. For example, the word "smart" is "slim" in Japanese not "intelligent".

That makes me speak wrong English... I have said to someone "you are naive"..

"Naive"(ナイーブ) means "nervous" in Japanense not "shouwing lack of experience"...

Why Japanese people creat these complex words!!!
("Complex" (コンプレックス)means "a sense of inferiority" in Japanese. But I wanted to say "comfused" in this case.)
