RE: Mama and Papa in Japan

in Motherhood17 days ago

Thanks for sharing this. I was one of those who thought okaasan and otousan are the words used for mama and papa in Japan. I didn't know it has evolved to mama and papa nowadays. Here in the Philippines mama and papa has always been the word used for mother and father. This is a wonderful update for me regarding Japanese language.
