ナッツなし (nattsu nashi) is the Japanese way to say "no nuts".
ナッツなし is used to express a request or instruction to prepare food without including any nuts.
How do you pronounce it?
nattsu nashi
Did you know?
- The word なし (nashi) in ナッツなし is a homophone for the Japanese word for 'pear', which is also written as 梨 (nashi).
- In Japan, the concept of 'nut-free' is less common than in the US or UK, so servers may ask for clarification on whether you mean 'all nuts' or just 'peanuts' using the word アレルギー (allergy).
- The word ナッツ is a loanword from English, but in traditional Japanese confectionery, the term 堅果 (kenka) is used for botanical nuts, though you will rarely see it on a modern menu.
Examples in context
- ナッツを使（つか）わないで。Do not use nuts.
- ナッツなしでお願いします。Nattsu nashi de onegaishimasu.No nuts, please.
- このサラダはナッツなしですか？Kono sarada wa nattsu nashi desu ka?Is this salad without nuts?
