Spelled correctly (with another 'i' at the end - a repeat of the last character), it would translate to "cute". It is pronounced "kawaii".

dylan, kawaii is not a pop culture term. it's a term borrowed from chinese, and it does mean cute, though written like ããã it's missing an extraãã - (kawaii)
with characters, you can write it like å¯æãã it's not often written like that, true, as it is a term people throw around and don't necessarily want to write 20 + strokes for.

It should be ãããããã, which means cute; lovely; adorable. =)

kawai(i)... it means cute, and it usually written in katakana because it's not the whole word. it's just a pop culture abbreviation.

It's the Japanese word for "cute".
