Translation: Animation
Definition: 1.A form of Japanese animation. Not all Japanese animations are anime, just saying. Anime, in my opinion, has to be in some way created, worked on, drawn, or written by an actual Japanese oriented person, and thus anime wannabes can never really be 'anime.'
Not all animes are sparkly happy, heart shaped faces with huge eyes stuff. Some anime is really hardcore. Really. Anime is for all ages, though some of the better ones are not suitable for all ages. The lenght of anime series can range from 12 episodes (Which are often never dubbed and sometimes put on DVD. Some of these are the best.) to over 200 episodes or more. (Naruto and Pokemon are the longest animes I've seen, with Naruto having a whopping 220 episodes and a sequel to the series.)
There are three main types of anime, strike that four. One for children and younger audience, etc. Then there's shounen. This is directed towards males, but is not for males. There's a lot of action, often well proportioned, less sparkly, probably aren't a lot of chibis. Then there's shoujo, again directed towards girls, but not for girls. Shoujo has more of a definite line rather than shounen. You can easily tell a shoujo anime when you're watching one. Comedy, romance, achieving dreams & goals, from most that I've seen there's always at least one really attractive character.
2. The show version of manga. Don't mix these two up infront of fans who may be a bit OCD. I often correct them instantly and show then the difference.
2a. Just another thing that's often confused with anime...Hentai. Technically, hentai is just a term for sexually themed anime, so don't mix that up. Hentai really means 'pervert' or 'perverse.' I really just call those animes pornography.
Death Note, Naruto, Air gear (Shounen)
Fushigi yuugi, Chobits, Fruits Basket {Furuba} (Shoujo)
Love Hina, Galaxy angel (From what I hear hentai.)
Sentence:
A:Oh, I hear there's a new anime that was just dubbed!
B:Great, more horrible voice-acting.

The quality of the animation depends on the budget and time the artists spend in drawing and coloring the frames. At times, anime artists get lazy and simply repeat a whole bunch of frames in order to help stretch 5 minutes worth of animation into 25.
One example of an anime movie that has fluid, nonrepetitive animation is Metropois (from the same guy who made Akira). In addition, the movie had stunning computer graphics, and the English translation was a helluva lot better than what I expected in an anime film.

A form of Japanese animation that Adult Swim hates showing because they are hungry for money.
Adult Swim: We are tired of Saturdays sucking so instead of playing anime we are going to play re-runs of our shows that are actually getting worse ratings than anime.
Anime Fan: Aw what the hell
Comedy Fan: Yay! Anime Sux0rs!!! Birdman FTW

An animal could be described as a mammal-warm blooded-or just about any living creature which is not human. I guess. Something or the other. Either way Emma Robinson...animals are not people. Just needed to clear that up.
That there is an animal.

Japanese's short term for "animation". Widely popular in the world. They have big eyes, pointy chin, and cool hair. Age ranges varies from All Ages (Hana no Ko LunLun, GeGeGe no Kitarou) to ages 8 and up (Yu-gi-oh, Dragonball), to Teens (Evangelion, Gundam), to Mature Audiences (Gungrave, Cutey Honey (1994 Version)).
Did you watch that anime called Naruto last night?

"Anime" is a Japanese style of cartoons and animations made in Japan and Japan only. Any animating of the same style in different countries is not anime.
In Japan, anime is also associated with manga.
Many manga have been remade in the anime form, such as Bleach, Attack On Titan and One Piece, just to name a few.
Many people are huge fans of anime. Most of these fans like to call themselves an otaku.
Just like the word money, anime has no plural with an 's'.
A 'weeaboo' is a negative term that is also associated with anime and the Japanese fandom.
Many close minded people think anime is either something for kids only or for perverted horny people who masturbate to it. Which is obviously not true.
Only about 80 to 90% of anime/manga is perverted. And about 30-40% is for younger audiences.
Hentai, or ecchi are two types of perverted anime along with harem.
Guy: "Anime is kind of boring...."
Girl 1 and 2: *they yell* "ANIME IS AWESOME, YOU %$@!^"
Guy: "Okay, okay! Jeez. It's just anime."
