Suteki - Adjective, Japanese in origin
Suteki is japanese for "beautiful". Like some other Japanese words, fans of Japanese culture
will sometimes use this word in their english sentences.
A distinction must be made between "Suteki" and "
Kawaii".
"
Kawaii" is
cute, a less serious word.
"Suteki" is beautiful, a word with more impact and used in more serious context.
Kawaii would apply to a plush toy, a figurine, or a costume.
Suteki would apply to a gorgeous female, a situation which is extremely nice, or something very touching such as falling in love.
