As you say, this yo is similar to an exclamation mark (!) and it is used to indicate that a statement of certainty. 2. Your name is spelled as ホアン・ズルアガ (Ho-a-n Zu-ru-a-ga). Unfortunately we don't have middle names so we have only first name and family name. I hope this helps. Juan Zuluaga-san,

I just have a few questions. 1. In the phrase "Hai, zekkōchō desu!" or "Hai, bacchiri desu yo." can the sentence-ending particle "yo" be used? For example. Hai, zekkōchō desu yo! or Hai, bacchiri desu yo. Is yo only used with not as strong words such as genki? Is yo similar to an exclamation point (!)? 2. What's my name in Japanese? Also, sometimes I use my middle name so it would all be Juan Esteban Zuluaga. How does one use their middle name in Japanese? Hello everyone.
