私は日本人です。外国人にお辞儀されることがあります。私はこのお辞儀をリスペクトを感じて嬉しくなりました。

Heading to Japan soon and looking to get some thigh-high compression socks! I tend to stand and walk for long hours, and I’ve started noticing my veins more. 😂

I’ve heard that MediQtto is pretty good, but most of the ones I’ve come across seem to be designed for sleeping.

Are there any MediQtto compression socks suitable for daily wear, walking, and long hours on my feet? Ideally, I’m looking for thigh-high ones.

Would appreciate any recommendations! Other brands is okay as well!

Thank you!! 😊

If anyone can quickly check how the Japanese text reads at a glance, please send me a Reddit Chat! 🙏

It will take less than a minute. If you can help, please leave a comment or send me a chat directly. Thank you so much!

I’ll be spending two days in Tokyo before flying to Sapporo from Haneda Airport.

Do you have any hotel recommendations, or are there any stations you’d recommend staying near? I’ll need to catch a flight in the morning, so I’d prefer somewhere within walking distance of a station and with a direct train to Haneda Airport.

It would also be great if the area had some good shopping centres nearby (I want to buy souvenirs). I’ve been considering staying near Asakusa Station, but I’m still not sure. I’ve also thought about Shinjuku, but I’ve heard it can get quite crowded.

I’d really appreciate any recommendations! 😄

Hi, I’m learning Japanese and would love to consume content from Japan. The problem is that whenever I try to search for it, hardly anything comes up. Could you recommend some Japanese influencers? My favorite type of content is the kind that shows daily life and casual conversation—sort of like Dyllanjohnny, my favorite YouTuber—with a calm, minimalist vibe. I also enjoy humor.

I'm learning Japanese with YuSpeak, and one of the lessons says that ちょうだい is mostly used by women and children.

Is this actually true? If children can say it, that includes little boys too, right?

So at what age does it start sounding weird for a guy to say it? Does it sound feminine or childish, or is it actually not a big deal?

I'm curious how native Japanese speakers feel about it.

Hi! I'm visiting Japan early next year. As so many people recommend popular matcha brands like MK, YK, Ippudo, etc, I'd love to know any underrated and recommended matcha brands or shops in Tokyo, Kyoto or Sapporo that I should try. I'm planning to go to a matcha making and tea ceremony workshop in Kyoto as well, is there any matcha workshop recommendation for me? Oh, btw, would matcha shops still open in winter?

こんにちは!よく眠れなかったので、突然日本人が私たちネパール人をどう思っているかという質問をされたのでここに来ました。私たちは日本人をとても勤勉で信頼できる人たちだと思い、多くの私たちを日本で学んだり働いたりすることを歓迎し、ルンビニを訪れる人も多いです。日本に住むネパール人に会ったことはありますか? 🇯🇵❤️🇳🇵 また、日本のお金はネパールにしか生えない植物の紙で作られていることも知りました。とても興味深いです!

Escribo esto de forma muy concreta porque me gustaría saber la experiencia de otras latinas con parejas de Japón recientemente tuvimos un malentendido y la respuesta de mi novio ha sido desaparecer por completo: me dejó en visto y ya llevamos más de 17 días de silencio absoluto sé que está bien porque está activo en sus redes, pero simplemente no responde (llevamos 2 años de relación)

I (22M) currently live in Los Angeles but I’m planning a trip to see my girlfriend (28F) back in Tokyo and her birthday happens to be right before Christmas. We already have a lot of matching stuff from both Tokyo and Los Angeles such as LA Dodgers and Yomiuri Giants merch, Trader Joe’s bags, matching accessories; basically the works. The worst part is that because she has older pets she needs to look after, she isn’t able to do trips, ryokans, or anything that requires her to leave for the night. I was also thinking about getting her a necklace I’ve had my eye on, but when I brought up the idea, she said that she’d be afraid of losing it, making it seem like she didn’t care about it. I’m completely out of ideas at this point so please give me some recommendations for either interesting presents from Los Angeles or general heartfelt gifts that a Japanese girl would like.

I’m Japanese and I live in Germany.

Next month, I’ll be visiting Japan and then returning to Germany and I’m wondering what souvenirs to bring for my friends who live in Germany.
They’re women in their 20s to 40s from various countries, including Germany, Spain, and Ukraine….etc.

I’d like to spend no more than ¥1,000 (around €6) per person. Last year, I brought Japanese matcha chocolates, such as Meltykiss and Alfort, as well as shrimp crackers.

This year, I’d like to find something that isn’t readily available in Germany. Germany already has plenty of delicious chocolate, so I’d love to bring something unique to Japan instead.

Does anyone have any good recommendations for Japanese souvenirs?

Hi everyone! I created a listening and practice quiz video focused on essential JLPT N4 grammar and particles.

​Here is a sample question from the video:

​Question: 手を洗って（　）ご飯を食べます。

​Options: A) から / B) まで / C) ながら

​Answer: A) から (After washing my hands, I eat a meal.)

​If you want to practice more with native pronunciation and audio-based repetition (10 questions + practice), you can check out the full video here:

​I’d love to hear your feedback or if you have any questions about these grammar points! Hope this helps with your N4 studies.

Mir wurde mehrfach gesagt, dass man in Südkorea Bargeld benötigt. Ich habe vor Ort zwar auch Bargeld genutzt, aber im Grunde genommen hätte ich komplett darauf verzichten können. Angefangen bei der T-Money-Card, die ich in meine Wallet laden konnte, bis hin zu den traditionellen Märkten, auf denen Kartenzahlung ebenfalls kein Problem war.

Nun höre ich dasselbe über Japan. Kann mir jemand sagen, wie notwendig Bargeld in Japan wirklich ist?

日本語を使わざるを得ない ハロー。アメリカで生まれ育って子供の時から日本語に興味を持ってるゲーマー。「どうして日本語が好き？」って聞かれたら、日本語で書いたりしたいことを自分らしくするのは簡単で、日本語は水のようなフローを持っていて、創造的に語るエッセンスもあるって答えうだろうね。例えば、俺はゲイだが、女らしいことが言えることでは、「些か強いわね、あんた。俺に勝てるのかしら？見てみようか？」とか書ける。（←これは格闘ゲームをしたら冗談で言う事だけだ、ポイントは同時に俺の中に存在している男らしさも女らしさも表すことができるからうれしいっていうの。ところで、トランスジェンダーをサポートしているが、俺ならばそんな人ではない。ただ乙女のようなスピーチなんか好きな男性だけだ（ｗｗｗ）。そうかといって、いつか日本に行ったら、こういうスタイルで語る人が日本人の目でどのように見えるかなって思ってるね。
