月

月 (canonical)
gachi (romanization)
gwati (romanization)
ぐわち (hiragana historical)

/ɡʷat͡ɕi/ → /ɡat͡ɕi/
First attested in the Edo period.
Appears to be a poetic use of the 呉音 (goon, literally “Wu-sound”) reading, in reference to a rank of 端女郎 (hashi jorō, “low-end prostitute”) in the Kansai region. According to a popular song, a 月 (gachi, “moon”) prostitute cost one 匁 (monme, old unit of currency, worth roughly 3.75 grams of silver), a 影 (kage, “shadow”) prostitute cost two monme, and a 汐 (shio, “tide; loveliness”) prostitute cost three monme.

See also: 影 (kage) and 汐 (shio)

(Kansai, historical) during the Edo period, a low rank of low-end prostitute


姫

⟨pi₁ me₁⟩ → */pʲimʲe/ → /fime/ → /hime/
From Old Japanese.
Originally a compound of 日 (hi, “sun”, a prefix or appellation used in reference to the imperial family) + 女 (me, “female person: girl, woman”).

木花之開耶姫:

in Japanese mythology, the blossom princess and symbol of delicate earthly life

月の姫: the princess of the moon: Kaguya-hime from The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter

See also: Thesaurus:娼婦

(Kansai slang) in the Kyōto and Osaka areas, a prostitute


乙

Originally from Middle Chinese 乙 (MC 'it), arising from the proper noun sense. Appears in texts from at least 833 CE.

(Kansai dialect, slang) a stupid person, someone who is slow on the uptake


へん

From Classical Japanese せん (sen), from はせん (wa sen), with は merged with the preceding syllable or becoming や, giving やへん (yahen). In turn, はせん is a composition of は (wa, topic marker or emphasis marker), せ (se, “to do”, irrealis stem) and ん (n, “not”).
The consonantal shift /s/ to /h/ is also seen in other words in Kansai, e.g. さん (san) to Kansai はん (han).

(Kansai) negates verbs in non-past tense


せ

せやな。


丸

⟨maro₂⟩ → */marə/ → /maru/
Shift from Old Japanese 丸 (maro, see below).


凧

From 烏賊(いか) (ika, “squid”), due to kites looking like squids.


回

回 (canonical)
-kai (romanization)
-kwai (romanization)
くわい (hiragana historical)

From Middle Chinese 回 (MC hwoj).
The kan'on pronunciation, so likely a later borrowing.

一回生

(Kansai) indicating year of university students


嫁

There are several theories, all of which analyse it as よ (yo) + 女(め) (me, “woman, female”). However, よ (yo) may be one of the following:
* 呼 (“to call out, invite”, in reference to welcoming the daughter-in-law as the son’s wife)
* 弱 (“weak”, in reference to the inferior position relative to the mother-in-law)
* 夜 (“night”, in reference to serving the husband at night)
* 良 (“good”)
* 吉 (“good luck”)


影

Unbound apophonic form of 影 (kaga).
From Old Japanese, ultimately from Proto-Japonic *kankay. Cognate with 陰 (kage, “shadow”).

See also: 月 (gachi) and 汐 (shio)

(historical, Kansai) a low ranked prostitute in the licensed quarters with a fee of two 匁 (momme)


敵

From Middle Chinese 敵 (MC dek). First cited in Japanese to the early 1200s.

的: (historical, chiefly Kansai, somewhat derogatory) (by extension from the red-light district usage) term of third-person reference: that guy, that one, he, she, it

的: (historical, chiefly Kansai, somewhat derogatory) (by extension from the red-light district usage) term of second-person reference: you


斧

Toyama, Nagano, Gifu, Shizuoka, Aichi (Nagoya), Tottori, Shimane (Izumo), Okayama (Takamatsu)

Nihon Kokugo Daijiten
Shinsen Jikyō
Tokyo
ja:明治書院

Attested in the Shinsen Jikyō of circa 898–901 CE, with the man'yōgana spelling 与支. Presumably from Proto-Japonic, but the first attestation in Japanese is too late to precisely reconstruct the vowels. Cognate with Proto-Ryukyuan *yoki.
Despite widespread regional attestations, the lack of pitch accent information in standard Japanese could imply that this word is not used in modern standard Japanese.

(southern Tōhoku, Kantō, Chūbu, Kansai, Shikoku, Kyūshū) an axe, a hatchet (in general)

[mẽ̞ɲ̟t͡ɕi o̞ kʲiɾɯ̟]

Phrase composed of メンチ (menchi, various possible derivations; see below) + を (o, object particle) + 切る (kiru, “to cut something, to cut across something, to break something; to do something boldly”).
Unknown derivation. メンチ (menchi) on its own generally means mince, as in mincemeat, ground meat. That does not fit this idiom, however.
One explanation is that メンチ (menchi) is an alteration of メンタ, as found in the synonymous Kansai expression メンタを切る (menta o kiru). In this, menta is an alteration of 目の玉 (me no tama, “eyeball”): /me no tama/ → /mentama/ → /menta/. The standard term 目玉 (medama, “eyeball”) is also used metaphorically to mean a glare, a stare; a scolding; compare English hairy eyeball, to eye. In this case, the phrase could be parsed as: menta o kiru → “to boldly eyeball someone” → “to glare in challenge”.
Phonetically, however, there is no clear mechanism for メンタ (menta) to change into メンチ (menchi). A more likely phonetic origin might be 面子 (mentsu, “face, honor”). In this case, the phrase could be parsed as: menchi o kiru → “to cut / break someone else's honor” → “to glare in challenge”.
The derivation may be a combination of the above, where menta may have been influenced by mentsu to become menchi.

2008, 石原伸司, 逢えてよかった 夜回り組長にココロを預けた少女たちのホンネ, 産経新聞出版, →ISBN, page 20:

いつものように渋谷センター街を夜回りしていると、若い娘が出会い頭にぶつかってきた。「なにメンチ切ってんだよ、オッさん！」 […] 自分でぶつかっておきながら、男のような言葉で因縁を吹っかけてくる。

Itsumo no yō ni Shibuya Sentā-gai o yomawari shite iru to, wakai musume ga deaigashira ni butsukatte kita.“Nani menchi kitte n da yo, ossan!” […] Jibun de butsukatte okinagara, otoko no yō na kotoba de innen o fukkakete kuru.

While I was was doing the night rounds through Shibuya Center Street as always, a young girl bumped into me as we passed. “What the hell are you staring at, old man!” […] Despite her being the one who bumped into me, she tried picking a fight with me with these mannish words.

2013, All About, Inc., editors, Garyū Shingo Taiho / Taima Osen wa Naze Tsuzuku [Shingo Garyū Arrest: Why Does Marijuana Pollution Continue?]:

Garyū held the title of M-1 middleweight champion (relinquished on the 27th, after his arrest), and competed in K-1 Max and the other kickboxing leagues. He was a famous competitor who gained popularity for his bad-boy performance, playing up his "past history" as a former biker gang member, coming into the ring wearing his gang regalia with his hair dyed blond, and glaring a challenge at his opponent before a match.

我龍は Ｍ-１ ミドル級王者のタイトルを保持（逮捕後の27日に返上）、Ｋ-１MAXを始めキック各団体に参戦。元暴走族という“前歴”を売りに、金髪に染めたヘアスタイルに、特攻服のヤンキースタイルで入場、対戦前には相手にメンチを切る（にらみ合う）という不良パフォーマンスで人気を博した名物選手。
