すてき
すてき · suteki · JLPT N3 · na-adj
lovely
💐 suteki sounds like steak-y: a great steak dinner is simply lovely
Often written 素敵, but those kanji are ateji, chosen for their sound rather than their meaning. One popular theory says it comes from 素晴らしい (subarashii, wonderful) plus 的 (-teki, -like). Either way, it is the everyday word for lovely or great.
