A video clip made by editing many cut scenes from one or more animes fit to some catchy MP3 song. The song is an important choice - it's either in English or in Japanese and the AMV creator should be familiar with it's words to make the scenes match the song text. The scenes shouldn't contain any subtitles and be of good quality, as otherwise the creator's efforts are half wasted. Many newbies even forget to turn off the DIVX logo - especially annoying, when it appears on every cut.
The resulting music video is a self-contained story and can really entertain you if made properly - it's sometimes even better than the song's original live clip.

The cars (usually Jeeps or any other terrain ones) modified in the way that their wheels don't fit into the dashers anymore and it's somewhat like a tractor. It's an extreme kind of tuning that makes the car useless but for the fans' exhibitions.
That freak told us that he would jump over 3 cars on the parking lot with his monster truck. However, he then dispersed with a lame excuse.

(adj.) Describes any kind of information that is stored as a sequence of bits rather than as the kind of information stored without sharp differences like a flow of sound on tape or ink on paper, which are examples of analog record. The analog information is susceptible to noise, aging and corruption during copying much more than the digital media.
The word digital comes from Latin digitus = finger, which refers to the bit yes/no structure of the information - the finger is either up or down.

Most of the kanji characters have more than just one (Chinese) reading in Japan. And the Japanese way of reading it is called Kun-yomi. It's written in Hiragana for the kids (likely for this ookii=big symbol) or for artistic purposes.

It is a Japanese syllabary alphabet used to spell out foreign, now mostly English words. Consists of approx. 45 syllables, which can be further modified with accents "=b and °=p, prolongations (nigori) and smaller versions of vowels, ya-yu-yo and tsu. It doesn't allow for an exact transliteration, thus introducing a thick Japanese accent.
