Topic	It's anima, not anime
berlyman101 02/05/24 3:56:22 PM #28:	Tyranthraxus posted... That's no reason to specify that the cartoons are Japanese. Especially when they're not even always Japanese. Lots of cartoons come from China or Korea that get called Anime. It's very often relevant. Anime has a significant following in the US and it's useful to quickly differentiate it as an interest. It's technically incorrect to call anything but Japanese cartoons anime, but colloquially it can be understood that they come from different countries. Incredible posted... If you wanted to, then you would abbreviate it as anima Anima already has a different meaning in western culture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anima_and_animus?wprov=sfla1 --- "They think it don't be like it is, but it do." -Oscar Gamble <cite>berlyman101 posted [p:978671366] in It's anima...
