Kyōshi
or "wild poetry," is a hybrid form of Japanese poetry that uses the tradition of '' kanshi'' (Japanese poetry written in Chinese characters). It was popular around 1770-1790 and avoids typical poetic forms, often including humorous expressions and puns on alternate readings or meanings of the same characters. Mostly written by low-ranking samurai and ''chōnin'' (townspeople), the form is closely related to '' kyōka'' (comic waka), ''kyōbun ("wild prose") and'', '' senryū, a form of Japanese comic poetry.'' The subject matter typically contains components of social satire, banter, and vulgar topics such as farting and/or itching which challenges the more conventional styles of Japanese poetry like classical '' waka''.

Suffixes are often gender-specific at the end of names, while prefixes are attached to the beginning of many nouns. Honorific suffixes also indicate the speaker's level, their relationship, and are often used alongside other components of Japanese honorific speech.Reischauer, Edwin O. (2002). Encyclopedia of Japan. Tōkyō: NetAdvance Inc. Honorific suffixes are generally used when referring to the person someone is talking to or third persons, and are not used when referring to oneself. The omission of suffixes indicates that the speaker has known the addressee for a while, or that the listener joined the company or school at the same time or later. Common honorifics The most common honorifics include: ''San'' , sometimes pronounced in Kansai dialect, is the most commonplace honorific and ...
