| Comment | "does anyone actually say "sado"? "
I don't know, but they actually say "S". "ああ、それなのに過酷なリクエストをしてしまった私はひょっとしてS?" (similar sentences heard on anime etc.) Which brings me to the current entry エス (n) (abbr) sister; (P) Really all it means is "S", and it is used as an abbreviation for just about anything beginning with that letter. 大辞林 has (1)英語のアルファベットの第一九字。 (2)(ア)南（south）を表す記号（ S ）。 (イ)南緯（south latitude）を表す記号（ S ）。 (3)面積（square）を表す記号（ S ）。 (4)硫黄（sulfur）の元素記号（ S ）。 (5)時間の単位、秒（second）を表す記号（ s ）。 (6)〔small〕衣類などのサイズが普通より小さいことを表す記号（ S ）。 (7)〔sister〕俗に、女学生同士のきわめて親密な間柄。また、その間柄にある相手。 (8)（sadist）サディスト。サディスト的要素。 (9)〔(ドイツ) es〕精神分析で、イド。 |

| Comment | what i meant was "does anybody actually say 'sado' [in english]?" which is why i deleted it.
i've actually had it in mind for a while to do a complete submission of the letters of the alphabet. i was surprised to see that they aren't in there already. probably useful for readings so people can get them to pop up in their IMEs. some of the readings (like Ｖ is usually ブイ instead of ヴィー, Ａ is エー not エイ) can be difficult to guess. plus, as you say, the meanings are sometimes less than obvious, i.e. S = sadism, M = masochism, etc. |
