eddie 0 Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 Can you get by in Japan without speaking any Japanese? I am thinking of booking a holiday for next ski season to check out all of this amazing stuff I have been reading on this web sight. Looks incredible. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 No problem. I know people who have lived here for years who barely speak the language and don't understand it. Link to post Share on other sites

rach 1 Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 No need to, but if you do you will get more meaningful relationships with the natives here. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 Naaah. Get on better in Japan if you know either no Japanese or are fluent. In between is the worst part. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I think you will find you'll be treated with more respect if you do put an effort into speaking Japanese. Will get more "real" friends too. Link to post Share on other sites
