i feel sorry for Jerry - imagine having Rick Sanchez as your father-in-law, who is constantly working to ruin your marriage.
And it turns out the wife, Beth is as selfish and psychotic as Rick is. Jerry needs to get a loving wife and a job he can take pride in.

Got it on the ol' Kindle, just need some time. A friend of mine hated the film until she read the novel. Hopefully it helps.

I think it's also because Jerry uses his weakness as armour.

I was pleased when i saw it as a fluent person in Japanese, 弱 is yowa which means weak aswell, but Japan has borrowed loads of Chinese kanji

弱いです。
bj52398
Borrowed or stolen stealthily deep in the night...like a ninja?
TheGirlInTheFireplace
Hence the name Kanji. Doesn't Kanji literally mean Chinese Character?
banz111
I'm not close to fluent in Japanese, but I did laugh and point it out to my husband.
LandSquid12345
Kanji are not Chinese, Chinese characters are called hanzi. That's like calling English writing Cyrillic.
ShootYourGooMyDude
Kanji 漢字 is literally a different pronunciation of "Han Zi", literal translation: 漢=Han 字=ji means Han characters.
It's not like Cyrillic, it's like saying English uses the roman alphabet... which it 100% does, just like Kanji uses chinese characters.
It's like saying that Polish uses the English alphabet. It's inaccurate and ignores the centuries of divergence between the writing systems.
Once again, aside from the fact that Kanji can be literally translated as Chinese/Han characters, it doesn't have much divergence at all.
I understand that kanji is the Japanese word for Chinese characters, but it's not accurate to call Chinese characters kanji as well.
baneofbelial
theyar
Yeah it's cool how Japanese and Mandarin are completely different spoken, but two people can communicate fairly well using writing.
Uh... HAHAHAHA. No. Word order and grammar's still too different. Plus, Japanese use a lot of characters very differently from the Chinese.
?? Happens all the time. I've done it to order a drink before. No clue how to say it in Mandarin, but 酒 worked fine. So uh haha yes, jerk.
Yes, because expressing the simplest of thoughts is the same as "communicating fairly well."
It is, yes.
CondescendingCunt
弱 is jaku(音読み);not yowa.Yowa is the 訓読み reading sans the 送り仮名.And it's not〝Chinese kanji゛it's hanzi and 漢字=lit.Chinese character."Fluent"…爆笑

Username checks out
Uh, anyone would read that as the adjective stem "yowa" in 弱い (yowai).
甘いな、あんた。もし海外の何処かかテキストで習ったやつに聞いてみたらせかも知れんが、母語で流暢な日本育ちの誰かに聞いてみたらちゃんと「じゃく」って読んじゃうぞ?そのほうが正しいけん(笑)やが「よわ」なら基本的に「弱っ‼」やそうゆーネタでしか表示せへんで。んで、もっと勉強しときな?
ElonMusksFutureHusband
We get it, your girlfriend is a pillow
buttshredder
Yeah, dude's some kind of condescending cunt.
Nize426
I'd say reading it as jaku would be standard when it's just 弱. Reading it as yowa is a bit odd. Not wrong per se, just a bit weird.
namiasdf
Everything that isn't hiragana probably originated from China. Japan's history is maybe a millenium and a half, China is well over 6000.
Japan during the feudal ages had maybe 10 million+ people, where as china was well over 300-400 million. The influence is real.
ImNotSureWhatAGoodUserNameIsSoThisWillHaveToDo
Even hiragana and katakana come from kanji.
Yea, but they set precedence by creating an alphabet. Korea followed suit. China has only simplified the more complex characters.
Weegeenmario
Borrowed? Do they plan to somehow give it back?
IhopeyougetstageIIIcoloncancer
Based on the relationship between them... I'm gonna wager no.
ymacsrn
Yes, it's a 3000year plan.
Flyndaran
It's weird that they're called loan words in English as well. But we like to fuck things up like "octopi"; a Greek word with a Latin plural.
HandsomeJackBlack
I say octopuses. It triggers people but technically it's acceptable
Octopus, octopuses, or octopi are all technically valid as much as any of us dislike one or more.
Greek plural would be octopodes, yet that's the one form no one argues for.

Kenblu24
That's not how it works
owlest
huh, people dont barter with words
twentyyearsandthensome
That's a really incorrect statement. We developed our language over the course of 5000 years, and we were a very closed off country.
The first of Japanese came from China.I'm usually not a super patriotic person, but our language and culture has nothing we borrowed.
Not sure if that's a joke, because Kanji 漢字 literally means Han characters, referring to the Han dynasty which it came from.
jayliu1984
Dude japan is an island, so anyone who is on it came from China one way or another.
Incrementor
You need to read up on your history.
raminagrobis
Japan was first inhabitated 40k years ago, way before China was created. There was also a land bridge connecting to Korea and Taiwan.
iwantaclevernametoo
Maybe so, but the Yayoi who displaced the Jomon came much later.
"Japanese" doesn't usually refer to the Native Japanese, just like Native Americans with America, or Native Australians with Australia.
lightdeity
not quite, kanji is literally just the stolen chinese characters, japan didn't influence chinese, in fact kanji is the only thing they share
JHawke
They've been sharing culture the spartan way quite a while too >_>
LOL
polijutre
They took from china a lot of their martial arts, clothes, architecture as well, even if they don't like to remember it
korea too, both korea and japan "borrowed" a lot from china. Kinda similar to how America owes a lot of it's culture to England.
False. They share a fair bit of phonetics as well, since each kanji has two sets of pronunciations; the kun'yomi that corresponds to how…
…the Yamato people pronounced the kanji's meaning at it's point of introduction, and kun'yomi which corresponds to how the Chinese…
Cheomesh
And even then not so much.
yeah because the sentence structure and meaning differs in kanji, which is why kanji tattoos read hilarious sometimes to Chinese readers
NewUsernameForImgur
Just to clarify some more. Same characters (弱 vs 弱) usually mean the same thing, pronunciations (ruò vs yowa) are different
yeah because they are read in different languages, japanese the spoken language is extremely different from dialects of Chinese.
Three of the four 音読み categories(呉音,漢音,and 唐音)corresponded to the hanzi's pronunciation in the Wu,Han,and Tang regions respectively however…
