Japanese - Ask questions thread

Basically if you have a question about the language, ask it and fellow 4channers might see it and answer it for you.

I'll try and explain this one
Sometimes it can be kind of used like a grunt, kind of imagine you throw a football, and you yell, "There!" as you release it from your hands. I guess another way to think of it is maybe.. "Take that!" but that might not be all that accurate and might not work in all cases. I think the 'a' in asore is just a grunt going in front of it, with no real meaning, "Ah! Take that!"
