    安っぽい: cheap. The Japanese adjective '安っぽい (やすっぽい)' means 'cheap' in the sense of something appearing low-quality or tacky. It is often used to describe objects, designs, or behaviors that seem inexpensive or lacking in sophistication. For example: That bag looks cheap「そのバッグは安っぽい」(そのバッグはやすっぽい). His jokes are cheap「彼のジョークは安っぽい」(かれのジョークはやすっぽい). The word carries a slightly negative connotation, implying that something is not just inexpensive but also of poor quality or taste.

    答案: answer or test paper. The Japanese noun '答案 (とうあん)' has two distinct meanings. The first meaning refers to an 'answer' or 'solution' to a problem, often in an academic or test context. The second meaning refers to a 'test paper' or 'exam sheet' itself, which includes the questions and the space for answers. For example: Please submit your answer sheet「答案を提出してください」(とうあんをていしゅつしてください). The teacher checked the answers on the test paper「先生は答案の答えを確認した」(せんせいはとうあんのこたえをかくにんした). The word is commonly used in educational settings and is important for understanding academic contexts in Japanese.
