South Korea — Phrase #8

😤#8 Exclamation

아 씨 (A ssi)

a ɕ͈i
Literal: Ah, fuck (abbreviated)
Feels like: A softened, abbreviated version of 씨발 that functions as "ah, shit" or "damn." Common enough that many speakers don't consciously connect it to its full form, though everyone recognizes the connection
