Well, it wont come up if you spell it wrong :D

Its Romanji basically, and if you say it fast enough it comes out as "Drift".. Do Ri Fu To.. Honest. And dorifutaa would seem to be Romanji for "Drifter". Its just english words converted into Japanese Kana. As far as im aware, Japanese Kana works in letter groups of 2 for the most part, and Do-Ri-Ftu doesnt work.

But you can just type Dorifuto into google and check out the results and then you can make up your own mind...

this means i have to change my sig tho

However if you type Doriftu into google it comes back with lots of sites so im not the only one

I see, that explains why a lot of japanese words sound just the same as english with a dodgy accent:rolleyes:
