Snaggle Tooth (114)
I learned the word "snaggle teeth" yesterday.
I googled the image and I think we call them "yaeba" in Japanese.
Snaggle teeth are considered cute in Japan.
If someone has a snaggle tooth, then it makes her/him cute.
So in Japan, children don't really actively get braces, even if they have snaggle teeth.
However, getting braces are gradually becoming more popular lately than before, but still it's not very common where I live.
I don't really see children who have braces around here.
By the way, snaggle teeth sounds very cute to me.
昨日 snaggle teethというフレーズを学びました。
画像検索してみました。日本ではそれを八重歯というと思います。
日本では八重歯は可愛いと思われています。
もし、誰かが八重歯があったら、それは、彼らを可愛らしく見せます。
だから、日本では、もし子供たちに八重歯があってもそんなに積極的に矯正しようとしないです。
でも、以前よりは歯列矯正をする人が増えてきていると思いますが、私の住んでるところでは、それでもまだ珍しいです。
ここら辺では、歯列矯正をしてる子供をあまり見かけないですね。
ところで、snaggle teethってすごくかわいく聞こえます。

I think you don't need "However" at the beginning of your sentence because later in your sentence you wrote "but."
I don't really see children who have braces around here.

Wow, I had never heard the word "snaggle teeth" until today. That's a new English word for me. 😄 It really is a cute word!
Do you know why snaggle teeth are considered cute in Japan? In America and Europe, I think snaggle teeth are considered a bit weird looking, so I'm curious about the cultural difference.

Thank you soo much for your corrections! I'm not sure why snaggleteeth are considered cute in Japan. When I was very little, I often heard if someone had a snaggletooth, they were cute. Of course it depends on the person. If an ugly person had a snaggletooth, then nobody might have said they were cute, but in Japan the parents and dentists don't actively push children to get braces, even if they have snaggleteeth. BTW, you had never heard the word, that means it's not a common word, right?

I see! That's very interesting. I think it's nice in Japan that people are seen positively even if they don't have perfectly straight teeth. In the US, I think braces are pushed even when there are no major health concerns, and it's just for appearance.
Yes, "snaggletooth" is definitely not a common word. I can't remember ever hearing it or reading that word before. It sounds like maybe it's a slang word that's used by a few people in some situations, but it's not used in everyday conversation about dental health. In everyday conversation, it's more common for people to just talk about "crooked teeth," "misaligned teeth," or "dental issues."

Thank you so much! I wanted to know that. I'll remember the word "crooked teeth." Another person said the "crooked teeth" as well. I think it's better for me to remember "crooked teeth" than "snaggleteeth." The word "crooked" is new for me, so I'd like to remember that.

So, in Japan, children don't really activelywant to get braces, even if they have snaggle teeth.
The sentence here really depends on if you're trying to communicate:
A) The children do not want to get braces
B) The parents/dentists do not actively push children to get braces
However, getting braces are gradually becoming more (and more) popular lately than before, but, but they're still it's not very common where I live.

I think it comes from the expression "to snag".. which means to catch and get caught on something:
→ I walked too close to a bush and snagged my clothes on a thorn
→ My clothes got snagged on a nail
Because the tooth is "sticking out", it could snag something... therefore, "snaggle tooth" !

"Snaggletooth" or "Snaggle-tooth"
I learned the word "snaggle teeth" yesterday.

Snaggle teeth are considered cute in Japan.
If someone has a snaggle tooth, then it makes her/ or him cute.
You could use "them" instead of "her or him". You could also use "him or her" and is probably more common than "her or him".
So in Japan, children don't really actively get braces, even if they have snaggle teeth.
Don't think you need the commas. "in Japan" is important to the meaning of the sentence.
However, getting braces areis gradually becoming more popular lately than before, but still it's, but it's still not very common where I live.
Need third person singular form for "getting braces". Probably do not need "lately than before" that is implied by the "becoming".
I don't really see children who have braces around here.
By the way, snaggle teeth sounds very cute to me.
Third person plural form needed as "snaggleteeth" is plural. Alternatively could say "a snaggletooth is".

Interesting to find this out. Do you think the increase in braces is influenced by western and particularly American culture?
Feb. 3, 2025
I'm not really sure where it's influenced from, but maybe America? Thank you so much for your corrections!

This is not incorrect grammatically, but it would be smoother to say "I don't see a lot of children with braces around here"

Well written with no real mistakes! And would you believe that I had never heard the term "snaggle tooth" before? I'm from Canada, so it's possible the word is more common in the US or UK. I would probably just say crooked teeth instead.

Thank you so much for your corrections! "Crooked teeth," thank you I'll remember that!
