1.
unskillful, bad at
Describes someone who lacks skill or ability in something. The opposite of 上手 (skillful). Can be self-deprecating when used about oneself.
The opposite of 上手. Uses the same grammar pattern: ~が下手です (bad at ~). It's considered polite in Japanese to be modest about your own abilities, so saying 下手です about yourself is common and not necessarily negative. Avoid using it directly about others as it can be rude.
