What does this mean? (Japanese Sticker) - Toyota Yaris Forums

*tk-421* · 05-30-2009, 12:26 AM

I just got this sticker in the mail and I think it looks pretty cool. But I don't really want to stick something on my car before I know what it actually means. Could someone help me out here? TIA

Something about being normally aspirated ie no turbo or SC

Yup... The NA part I get. It's the rest that's got me confused.

Don't worry, I got this one and don't know if really says: "Toyota Racing Development"

NAchiyuun no naruhodo

-chiyuun (written across the top in katakana) idk, but this style usually refers to words non-native to Japanese. they may be used to resemble sounds... poissibly the word "tune" or with the NA, a play on words to read "NAtion"... again idk

-no (following "chiyuun" on top in hiragnana) possessive particle

-naruhodo (across bottom in hiragana) could be translated as "indeed!, I see!, or I get it!"

... the three characters in the bubble read su, chi, and shi (also in hiragana)

you're on your own after that

toyotehinohirahito (in katakana)... yes it reads "te" not "ta"

i recognize some of the kanji characters in the black box, but I couldn't pronounce them... i barely passed 2nd level Japanese in school

Awesome! Thanks for getting me closer to the truth.

NA Tune (Naturally Aspirated Tune)
Naruhodo NA = I see! The "NA" part is intended to be a pun in Japanese as the NA means Naturally aspirated, but is also part of the sentence in the Japanese language.
Cute sticker, would look great on old school cars in my opinion.

This second one is a replica, but a terrible one as the Japanese characters aren't correct.
It suppose to read "TOYOTA TECHNOCRAFT" in Japanese "katakana" characters. But instead it reads "TOYOTE TEFNOFRAFT" (lol)
The white lettering on black background just means "company" or "Inc." in Japanese.

This oriental language class are so cool!

Thank you for your patience!

Thanks a lot for letting me know! Now I'm ready to paste this somewhere.

good call on the stickers... i def misread the katakana "hu" to be "hi", oh well...i need sleep

Gideon · 05-30-2009, 02:02 PM

My turn! lol

Since we're asking what Japanese stickers mean, what do these two say? I know they're emission type stickers but that's it.

gwasabi · 05-30-2009, 03:14 PM

The bottom one says atmosphere friendly gas car. reduced emission up to 75%.....something like that

or it says 17 people say this car is made out of 75% beast!

The green one reads that the vehicle exceeds the 2010 minimum fuel ratings by 5%.
The blue one is for low exhaust emissions, 75% cut from min. requirements in 2005.

Awesome, thank you!
