あざっす
Significado: Thanks — a slangy, ultra-casual abbreviation of ありがとうございます.
あざっす compresses ありがとうございます into a quick, casual grunt of gratitude. It is heavily associated with young men, athletes, and part-time workers giving a quick thanks. The tone is breezy and informal — almost throwaway. It can sound disrespectful if used in the wrong context, but among peers it signals comfortable familiarity.
Ejemplos
