Introduction

The Japanese language is spoken in Japan and also overseas but on a much smaller scale. Japan happens to host some of the best learning institutions in the world. It is therefore common to find foreign students going to Japan to advance their studies. Living in Japan will definitely require you to learn the Japanese language. The right Japanese phrases will help you make as many friends as you could possibly want. It is important to make Japanese friends when you are living in Japan. This will help you interact with them fully and to learn the culture of the Japanese people.

The Japanese people still have, despite the modernity and level of civilization associated with the Japanese country, deep entrenchment in their culture, fashion, and lifestyle. If you want to learn the right Japanese phrases, it is most important to first understand the Japanese language. You can use your language to get a few friends to start the learning process with. Once you have a few native Japanese friends, then you can use them to learn the language and to perfect on it by practicing the language with real people - your friends.
