Japanese[edit]
Alternative forms[edit]
- ピッツァ (pittsa) (less common)
Etymology[edit]
Borrowed from Italian pizza,[1][2][3] appears to be a transliteration (based on the original Italian spelling) rather than a transcription (which is ピッツァ (pittsa), based on the Italian pronunciation).
Pronunciation[edit]
Noun[edit]
- pizza
- ピザ屋
- piza-ya
- a pizzeria
- ピザ屋
- (slang, derogatory) fatty; fatso
Usage notes[edit]
- This form with the /z/ pronunciation is much more common than the ピッツァ (pittsa) form with the /t͡s/ pronunciation.
