Gojo Sensei’s Quote

五条悟 ごじょうさとるis a main protagonist of 呪術廻戦じゅじゅつかいせん and claims that he is 最強さいきょう (strongest). Underestimating五条ごじょう‘s combat abilities, 漏瑚じょうご ambushes him and calls him 「大たいしたことない」believing his attack has certainly killed五条ごじょう. He replied with this quote.

誰だれが大たいしたことないって？

dare ga taishita koto nai tte

Who are you calling easy?

Vocabulary:

誰 だれ(dare): who

大たいしたことない (taishita koto nai): trivial, not a big deal.

って (tte): quotation particle

Quoting What Someone Said In Japanese

When you quote what someone said in Japanese, you use the「と」particle and 「言いいました」.

Using 「と」you can change this sentence to…

a sentence like this.

Here, the 「は」particle after漏瑚じょうご can be changed to 「が」to give an emphasis: ‘Jōgo is the one that said…’.

When speaking casually, 「と言いいました」can be removed all together and replaced with 「って」. Therefore, the above example in a casual context can be…

You can change this sentence into a question that asks ‘who said…’ by changing the topic of the sentence 「漏瑚じょうごは」to 「誰だれが (Who)」.

For Gojo, the「五条先生ごじょうせんせいは」part obvious, therefore, he can remove this. When he says this phrase, it will therefore be…

At this stage the 「大たいしたことない」part is no longer a direct quote. Therefore, you can remove 鉤括弧かぎかっこ: 「」.

In anime, this quote is translated as ‘who are you calling easy?’.
