~なう (-nau)

The meaning is almost the same and sounds the same as "now".
This term is used on Twitter and so on so not so many people use it when speaking.
You have to use this term after words and with Hiragana, not Katakana (ナウ).

e.g. TV wo miru nau 「TVを見るなう」= I'm watching TV.

By the way, this term was in the top 10 newly-coined words of 2010.
