Yabe- is actually a shortened form of
yabai. Yabai/yabe can be used for
moments of danger (oh shit moments) or
when something is really unbelieveable
(beyond sugoi/suge), but is true or did
occur. [Comment by: Masa Rated:2/5 ]
I use this all the time (in the right
context, of course, haha not k.y.), but
I didn't know that it could be used as
anything but having a bad connotation,
like those good old "oh shit" moments. [Comment by: Miki ]
I often hear it used for good things as
slang. Good
looking girl, or cheap all you can
drink, situations
that are too good. [Comment by: めい3 ]

yada
やだ
Posted by: BruceRating:1.0
"No way", "Yuk", "That's gross", "Enough already". Often said by a person that doesn't want to do something, e.g. by a child being forced to eat their vegetables. Host brother says this often [Comment by: Willy Rated:4/5 ]
I don't think this is said by men. I
think it's more of a young child (girl
or boy) or women. [Comment by: kagakun Rated:4/5 ]
i start off learnin japanese from their
porno, one of the word they use the most
on the bed lol. [Comment by: martin ]
@ kagakun - depends upon the man & his
level of innocence I guess. Personally
I've heard it from younger to older,
including men.. (granted, they weren't
really MANLY men, but yeh..)
[Comment by: eriberri ]
its いやだ。And you're right, its
usually used by children and girls, but
I have heard older guys say it too. [Comment by: Rob ]
Well this probably shouldn't go under
"Iyada," but "Iya" is kind of slang, I
guess. Like when you say "well no, it's
rather this way...." while talking to
someone, you would use "Iya." I think
it's a branch off of "Iiye," not
"Iyada." I don't know lol, the Japanese
I know/learn is from what I hear around
me, when I go to Japan/ talk to my mum. [Comment by: Miki ]
it was orginally "iya da" but it's been
shortened colloquially to "yada" [Comment by: sottovoce ]
Is this where the English term "yadda
yadda yadda," comes from?
As in "etc. etc. etc" or "blah blah
blah"? [Comment by: NT124 ]
lol no it's completely different from
the english phrase.
and i use "iya" all the time in talking.
for instance "iya, sou nan ja nai yo"
which means "it's not like that" in
english. in that sense, i hear adults
use it all the time. but iyada not so
much, except older women still seem to
use it, it's very rare to see a man(who
isnt homo) using it xD [Comment by: xcurior ]

yappa
やっぱ

"Of course", "I know", "Yeah, that's right". Shortened slang version of "yappari" and "yahari", usually used to begin a response to a question (e.g. a TV interview). Sometimes used as a sentence connector, meaning:
"Of course", "as I thought", "after all is said and done".Oh baby wait and see, YAPPA itai no wa Iya, dakedo,
Risuku ga aru kara koso tatakau hodo ni tsuyoku naru no sa.

, yep, comes
from? [Comment by: O.J. #1 ]

yaru
やる
hell ya [Comment by: jeseman_04 ]
it's also used to say someone is good at
something, for instance "yaru ne" for
someone who can play poker really well,
etc.
and most of the time, yaru is just "to
do". people who don't know japanese
really well will have a hard time making
it come across as "to do sex" lol. [Comment by: xcurior ]
