What's with "Ossss" ?
I've been seeing american BJJ guys typing that out a lot lately.
ttt
...come on!
bohaa!
Osss! From the Japanese word Oshi Shinobu Osu, meaning "persevering when pushed", or in other words: never give up, have determination and patience. At the start of a fight, we shout "OSS" as a way of letting this sentiment out. It is a way of saying to our opponent, "I respect you, and I will work hard."Quote:

Ossss is also used while traditional people are getting on and off the mat, while also bowing to the sensei of the Academy. I also do not know its exact meaning but use it since others do. I assume it is Japanese based.
There you go that makes sense.Quote:

I'm not 100% for sure on this one, but I remember hearing somewhere that "passe/passa quada" means pass the guard. Any Brazilian speakers able to confirm this?
im PRETTY SURE from my understanding at bjj tournaments (not sure if internationally i would assume yes?) but definately in brazil from what i think i hear, i hear the brazillians in the AUDIENCE chanting "O BRI GA DO" which means "thank you" translated but i have no idea WHY they chant that (i hear a 4 syllable chant in portugese but cant figure out what/why)
Most verbs are different but that one seems to be the same. Passar su guarda or to pass his guard. I also use passale or passe los pies. Obrigado as I understand is thank you but also comes from a traditional song. It's like Cielito Lindo for us... U know bro, canta no llores.Quote:

"Obrigado" means thank you.
