Talk:Norway/Iceland

this'll sound stupid but what the heck is onii-chan? i can't speak japanese.

Onii-chan's the Japanese term for older brother, normally used by younger people (but not really) which is why Iceland's so flustered about it. Other suffixes can be used, such as Onii-sama, used when you have an awful lot of respect for your brother, (Liechtenstein uses this one a lot), and Onii-san (more respectful). A more casual version is Aniki (Korea uses this in fanworks when referring to China a lot). The female variant is Onee-san/chan/sama, meaning "Older sister." Mikuhatsune12 06:44, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
