The proper abbreviation for “Japanese” is JPN, not “jap”. “Jap” is an ethnic slur that was used in World War II, and it stings a lot to see it even if we know if the person using it has no bad intentions and just is not informed. Please take care to use the proper abbreviation! And please correct anyone you see using the incorrect abbreviation! Thank you!
acceptable: JPN, JA, JP
not acceptable: Jap
DO NOT DO THE THING.
Reblogging because I know that for a few of my followers, English is not their first language and they may perhaps not know this. It’s important not to be ignorant.
Okay I litteraly didn’t know that as a non native English speaker and it made a huge difference !
