An offensive, derogatory slur for Americans, created by the British back during the American revolution. Since then the term has softened in to the word Yank and Yankee, a far less insulting word sometimes even used as a term of endearment by the British. Jank today is hardly used as a way to insult Americans and has spawned a new meaning, often referring to a useless, worthless, or crappy piece of junk.
'Jank's are so dirty, a white feather would make their outfit look fancy.'

"Japanese" + "Yank") A young leftist American, usually male (but can also be any Westerner of either gender), who travels to Japan for the express purpose of shallow cultural dabbling, inflation of self-worth, and the search for a supposed sexual haven; teaches conversational English because he/she has no other marketable skills.
