素敵 【すてき】 (adj-na,n) lovely, dreamy, beautiful, great, fantastic, superb, cool, capital, (P)
So素 means ‘elementary, principle, naked, uncovered’. 素直、素顔。Well, I’m not sure how 素直 means “obedient”… but whatever. But, 素敵 means “uncovered-like”, right? So, isn’t that kind of implying that Japanese admire the honest/uncovered??
Well, I think that may just be limited to the etymology of 素敵.. but I’m not sure if I can say that word comfortably now, thinking about what it kind of means. (If someone is amazing and beautiful, I don’t want to say 素敵… I want to say かっこいい or something else… Well, I guess it could mean like “They’re uncovered… just as they are, I like them!”, but I think that’s stretching it. Maybe, with the word, you’re implying that a person is, to you, the Element of Being ____ (cool/positive trait), and that require no extra effort, they simply ARE (cool/some other positive trait).
