'Desu' is a nonsensical spacefiller. It means NOTHING.

That's because dubs are usually bad, and secondly, they still try to mimick the character's idiosyncrasies.

In short, you're wrong.

Jesus Christ, it means something along the lines of.. God, I can't even remember, but basically, it's added to Japanese sentences sort of like... Oh Jesus.. an.. not an adverb. I need to gb2/english101, but er.. well, fuck, it's just something added to Japanese words the same as we might add words to things that aren't really necessary most of the time.


Shit, disregard all of the above, I suck cocks.

Basically, from what I can tell, but am somehow unable to articulate here properly, is that it can't really be translated to mean anything exactly on its own, however when added in certain parts of a Japanese sentence, it does do/mean SOMETHING, it's just really hard to tell what.
Sort of like an adverb, only not an adverb.. and adsomething, but..
What the fuck is an adverb again?
THEY NEVER TAUGHT ME THIS SHIT PROPERLY IN SCHOOL. MOTHERFUCKERS.

TL;DR - It can't be translated as meaning anything clearly, but it does mean SOMETHING when used correctly when speaking Japanese.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that's all sarcasm.

Therefore, I LOL and give you internets.

Desu has no meaning by itself, it makes sentences sound more polite.

The english word for it is the 'copula'. Stick that in your dictionary.
Desu is the polite form, da the plain form.

It's (mostly) the same as words like 'is', 'was', etc.

It *can* be used as a politeness thing only (e.g. at the end of adjectival verbs, since they have no polite form), but should not be otherwise. Desu-chan overuses desu, and puts it in places where it's not supposed to go, hence the lolz.
