Common Japanese expression, short for "ah so desu ka".
"Ah" means "ah" like in English. "So" means "that kind of thing" or "that way". "Desu ka" (pronounced "des-ka") means "is it"? Desu is the verb to be, and ka makes it a question. So the meaning is "oh, that's how it is." Kyou-wa ii tenki desu!
Ahso! It's a nice day today! Ahso! |
