Not everyone is appreciative with hearing a person who is actually not Japanese in nature but is able to speak Japanese language fluently. There’s this video I saw one time to which an obviously British magician who exhibited his tricks in Tokyo. He was very fluent with the city’s language. Though not everyone is really appreciating how a foreigner—an English native, to be specific—could speak a foreign language as unique as the Japanese language.
That’s why if you would be given the chance to study Japanese in Japan, don’t hesitate to take such opportunity. Not everyone is given that chance. And if you are the person who is greatly interested to learn and master this unique but amazing language, I’m sure; the choice to come to your target language’s country will give you endless advantages!
Japan, in fair view to this successful and growing country in terms of global and economical aspects, plays a very important role. So your employment opportunities are basically secured in this country especially when you gain access to information available only in Japanese language. Wouldn’t this give you an edge among others who are also looking for greener pasture in this country?
Besides, everything you will be learning in Japanese language schools will be applied from your day to day living especially when you’ll be staying in Tokyo or other Japanese cities for a certain period of time. Yes, your English is highly applicable here, but it will be a lot different if you can communicate to the people without minding effortful translations.
One of the things that Japanese language along with its culture is interesting to know is that it’s not the typical lifestyle at all. Yes, we are too exposed with the European or American culture already, which actually makes the Japanese culture more interesting. It’s definitely worth knowing when despite its uprising economy, they still retain their ancient culture.
So don’t hesitate to choose to learn Japanese language. And of course, where else could it be learned excellently, but in Japan right? Make inquiries for more details.
