データ飛んだ

• 読み: データとんだ
• ローマ字: deeta tonda
• 発音: /de.e.ta.to.n.da/

意味

Data gone — all my data or save files were lost or wiped.

データ飛んだ (データとんだ) is an informal expression for losing data due to a crash, accidental deletion, or device failure. The verb 飛ぶ literally means 'to fly,' but in this context it means 'to vanish/be wiped out' — a usage that extends to other sudden losses in Japanese (e.g. 記憶が飛んだ, memory went blank). Extremely common among gamers who lose save data, or anyone whose phone or computer crashes. Often accompanied by despair emoji online.

避ける言い方

• 「データが消えた」のほうが丁寧 — 「データ飛んだ」はフォーマルな場面には不向き (「データが消えた」 is more polite — 「データ飛んだ」 is too casual for formal settings like IT support tickets)

• Assuming 飛んだ always means permanently lost — sometimes data can be recovered, so check before giving up

起源と歴史

The use of 飛ぶ to mean 'to vanish suddenly' is a well-established figurative sense in Japanese (e.g. 頭が飛んだ, 仕事が飛んだ). Its application to digital data loss became common in the 1990s–2000s as personal computers and game consoles became widespread, and entered everyday casual speech naturally.
