Example Word
末っ子: youngest. The Japanese noun '末っ子 (すえっこ)' refers to the youngest child in a family. It is a term often used to describe the position of a child within a sibling group, emphasizing their status as the last-born. This term carries a nuance of affection or endearment, as the youngest child is often seen as the baby of the family. For example: She is the youngest in her family「彼女は末っ子です」(かのじょはすえっこです). The youngest child is always spoiled「末っ子はいつも甘やかされる」(すえっこはいつもあまやかされる). The word is commonly used in both casual and formal contexts to describe family dynamics.
