But what if the car was from Japan?
What if we fucked in the hentai van?
Hen tai literally means 'weird appearance'. Hentai van is weird looking, usually Japanese van, for example Nissan S-Cargo.
TIL, after thinking for about 20 years that it meant "perversion" or something similar because that's what I was told when I first as🤦😂
Well, it kinda, sorta does.
Hentai is a compound of 'hen' and 'tai', which mean 'weird' and 'appearance', respectively. Hentai means 'transformation' or 'abnormality'. If we're talking about sex, it's usually shortened from 'hentai seiyoku', 'abnormal sexual want', or to put it bluntly, perversion.
Ah, so it's a case of shortening the expression? Fair enough lol
Everybody knows what a hentai van is
