I think かばん is more common when referring to a bag – at least that is my experience.
美しい doesn’t mean “gorgeous” but beautiful. I think you would be better of with learning that word since it is way more common.The other words I can’t really tell because there are many of them that I haven’t come across.
Thanks! I’m looking for a word that would be used to compliment someone if they were wearing a really nice outfit, what’s the hiragana for that word?
If by “dress” you mean the specific clothing item, that’s ドレス. 衣装 means the whole outfit. 靴 (くつ) is more common for shoes, 眼鏡 for glasses is read めがね. Magazine is 雑誌 (ざっし).
Anonymousくつ is the most common word for ‘shoes,’ rather than ‘dosoku’.
People usually say ジュエリー for jewelry.
ドレス is dress.
かばん is used for bag. Also, めがね is used for glasses.
I love KPop too!!! Do you like Super Junior??I know “kaban” is the usual word for “bag” (i.e. briefcase, handbag, satchel, et al) but I’ve seen one or two occasions where “baggu” was used for “purse” (as in a woman’s purse). Is this at all common or was that one just an exception to the usual rule?
