I learned a swear in Spanish yesterday and now one in Jappo? What will it be tomorrow? I should learn some in my own language to teach y'all. Very few of my language speakers left though.
Not proper feminine language (onnakotoba). She's conservative after all. It's not usually said in public voice (tatemae). She may have said it quietly in her "true voice" (honne).
A lot of the Japanese language is a combination of context-based and referential, with one word having many related-but-different meanings depending. See also: English.
ya, much like in english we might insult the inteligence of the manufacturer when we have a defective product. bad centering is localized to make more sense, more litterally its "idiot centering"

Bilingual in Japanese here, can verify this is correct. She's not telling you to say I Like To Eat Ass. But... don't say this to anyone, please?

Long vowels (with the dash in hiragana) are typically spelled that way in romaji.

Brother is am japanese. Im aware of how speaking works

As a person with limited knowledge of Japanese: wouldn't "Bakayaro" translate better to "Dumb-ass"?
IliveIdyeIliveagain
You're right but you can use 馬鹿野郎 in both way anyway and we don't care which is which. Thanks for the comment
StudioDerpster
I was told it meant "stupid field worker"

Baka roughly means "a person of low intelligence" and depending on tone and context could mean anything from idiot to dumb-ass to ass-hole

When it comes to pokemon cards, vendors also say baka-centering. When a card has bad centering.

Teme can also be a suffix if you want to single an asshole out

Interestingly, swear words are often the first things you learn in a foreign language.
