被日本坊间用以形容中国游客在日疯狂购物现象的"爆买"一词，在日本"2015 U-Can新语-流行语大奖"评选中摘得"日本年度词语"桂冠。
The top winning phrase, "Bakugai," frequently appears on Japanese media in recent days, after busloads of Chinese travelers arrived at duty-free stores in Tokyo's shopping districts, purchasing items including rice cookers and high-tech toilet seats.
斩获头奖的"爆买"成为近来日本媒体上的高频词，形容大批中国游客乘巴士抵达东京购物区免税店、狂买电饭锅和高科技马桶盖等商品的行为。
Chinese tourists purchased more than 60 billion yen ($488 million) worth of goods in Japan with China's UnionPay bank cards during the Spring Festival holiday in February, which was a 250 percent year-on-year.
