Japanese English

Today's blog topic is Japanese English. It is important to understand how the Japanese express their feelings or thinking by using typical Japanese English phrases. Let's get familiar with Japanese English :)

It's difficult.

It does not mean literally difficult, but impossible. If the Japanese say "The mission is difficult," they would like to tell you kindly "The mission is impossible."

You can use chopsticks very well.

= Why on earth can foreigners use chopsticks?

Your Japanese is great.

The Japanese are very polite. We never insult others. This means you can't speak Japanese at all, but thank you for trying.

That does not matter at all.

It matters. What the hell is going on????? But the Japanese should be calm and put matters away. This phrase is very practical to express the Japanese calmness.

It's difficult to understand Japanese English. But I hope you enjoyed reading this blog. 

Matane - see you 🎌
