QUOTE(tatsuyachiba @ Aug 27 2009, 01:38 PM) Of course some do, for example that famous female Japanese pro ping-pong player (whats her name? Ai-chan?) that lives and plays in China. There are after all 125 million Japanese. Just like some speak German, French etc. may i ask which book should recommend for me to communicate with japanese?i worry when the time i'm at nihon ppl wont understand wat i say..But common? Definitely not. There's a huge influx of Chinese immigrant workers in Japan, esp. in the last 5-8 years. You can find them everywhere: most cooks, a lot of restaurant servers are Chinese. To us, they look and sound like Japanese. But to the Japanese, they can always tell. Accent different, dress different, mannerisms different. It is very hard to speak native Japanese to the level that Japanese cannot tell. One big giveaway is that foreigners cannot master keigo, which is the polite form of Japanese. You may know the words but very hard to know the context in which you must use which form of keigo. Also, Taiwan (and Korea) were colonies of Japan for more than 50 years. Taiwan is the only East Asian country that does not hate the Japanese. QUOTE(matt85) I think many younger gens of Japanese can speak English better than all of us Very unlikely. Japanese are "book and exam smart" in English but cannot communicate effectively.Got laughed at when i tried to speak nihongo to 2 cute japanese ladies; they replied in perfect American-slang English. I've a couple of friends who graduated from Sophia University (the top English language university) and they are nowhere near native-level. Most likely you stumbled upon either a) kikokushijo - Japanese that spent childhood in a foreign country because of expat parents e.g. Utada Hikaru b) they attend international school in Japan |
