Do Japanese People Speak English? (2017 Interview)

[@ThatJapaneseManYuta]

As you can see, many Japanese people don't speak English. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing, though. In my opinion, a lot of interest part of Japanese culture came from the fact that not many Japanese people speak foreign languages. But it also means that if you want to make Japanese friends from Japan or possibly date a Japanese girl or guy, it'll be much, much better if you speak Japanese. So, if you want to learn Japanese with me, I can send you some free Japanese lessons by email. Click here to subscribe bit.ly/2Kc7UaQ

I love japanese people. They are humble. They always smile and I like that, because I'm from Indonesia, and by smiling we have shown others that we are friendly ppl.. But, unfortunately, most japanese ppl cant speak english. Well, I'm not a native speaker actually. And I'm not interested in learning japanese.. its too late for me to learn it..😭

Very interesting; I had thought English would be taught in schools like it is in most countries. I have an affinity with the far east and Japan in particular and it would be nice to think I'll be able to have an English conversation when I'm over there as sadly I don't speak anything else!

[@lizzielustmord]

Aleksi Himself they all say no. It's second nature to deny ability. If you ask a grand piano master if they can play piano they'll say "a little bit..." Also most people don't realize just how much English they know!! Every student here studies English a minimum of 6 years as well as 2 years of organized English activities weekly in elementary school. Some stuff sinks in after a while :) Not to mention that the Japanese language actually utilizes thousands of English words that are used constantly.

Most of them say no but they actually have a pretty good understanding of the language. I'm also not a native English speaker but I'd say I'm doing fine. The problem in most countries(as well as my own) is that the level of English they teach there is not really enough to hold a normal conversation, so id you are really interested in the language you have to learn it yourself.

[@2Grills1Kappa]

Dantoxism There's also a difference between passive and active fluency: Many people may perfectly understand what you are saying (passive), but won't be able to word their answer (in a grammatical correct way). Obviously, this is not exclusive to Japan, you'll see it anywhere you go.

[@DuchAmagi]

That's why I'm so thankful to my English teacher in college. She was very nice and polite and even though she had to teach us some grammar and vocabulary as every teacher does, she also had conversations with us during every class and she always asked us about our opinions on sth. You had to talk during these classes and she wasn't strict, she was minimize the level of stress, she helped you when you didn't know sth and when you were in the fix. From this time I gained confidence to have conversations in English with everyone, she really taught me to speak.

[@dantoxism8538]

+DuchAmagi Good for you! I always feel some awkward tension in English class so it would be nice to relieve some of that stress with a teacher like the one you had. Having conversations with the students is a very nice way of adapting to the language and it makes it just easier for you to use it in everyday life. I just feel lucky for having friends who can speak English so I can speak it on daily basis , otherwise I don't think I could've learnt English just from classes. It's bad that most people get their knowledge about English only from schools where it isn't taught the right way. I'm sure someday it'll be better, but for now we just gotta deal with it :). Btw where are you from?

[@DuchAmagi]

I'm from Poland. And you?

[@dantoxism8538]

I'm from Bulgaria.

[@Mantzy_AUS]

It's nice to see someone learn English and to speak it with more of a British accent.

[@IsaneJane]

yeah, I think it's hard for people to learn a language and then an accent on top of that, so most english is preferred to be taught and spoken in a "standard" American "accent".

[@Ynysmydwr]

With respect, that's not a very logical thing to say, Regina! Why would a Japanese person learning any variety of English see it as first learning a language and then acquiring an accent "on top"? Would you say that about someone who had been taught to speak with an American accent? As for accent "preferences", doesn't that have far more to do with the teacher than with the learner? I've met Japanese people who have been taught (or taught themselves) to speak English using as far as possible an accent typical of the way the language is spoken in England -- and are conscious of that fact. But doubtless there are as many, if not more, examples of learners who self-awaredly use an American accent. In neither case, however, is it a question, I would say, of acquiring an accent on top of learning a language. The two processes are inseparable.

[@Kunumbah1]

Ynysmitwr You hit it spot on.

[@willmannn]

Lol what's the point of putting American "accent" in quotes like it isn't a real accent? It just makes you look petty.

[@twinkacast]

[@jesuschrist6579]

Leon Schuessler Um as a native English speaker I️ have to disagree. Her accent was very minimal especially for a language not even related to English. I️ literally know a native English speaker that has a similar accent to her. Her accent isn’t exactly gone but it’s closer to an American accent than most other Japanese people.

[@jesuschrist6579]

Leon Schuessler Also self-confidence? Where? She seemed very uncertain of herself the whole time... (even tho she shouldn’t be because her English is great) I️m sorry that you feel bad that your English isn’t that good but you don’t have to bring someone else down.

Uchinaguchi is the native language of Okinawa but really only the older generation speak it. The younger generation who do use it speak Japanese with a few Uchinaguchi words thrown in. As for English the older generation who grew up with the American occupation know quite a lot of English and like to practice it with foreigners.

[@UntrainableWizard]

It's honestly impressive hearing the students speak so well, even with a few small hesitations they corrected themselves where they needed to ("weeks" to "years"), and without letting that interrupt or stall their speak. I feel like, when I was at school, those that learned German still struggled, when it came to speaking German without preparation (ie- when in conversation with German peoples), despite German's close relation to English and it's trading words between languages. EDIT: Actually, pronunciation for everyone was really good, it's not something I expect when hearing a non-native speaker because of media and how it shows peoples pronunciation. I think it's nice to hear the Japanese twist from some, as well though, I think it's because of how consonants work in Japan but I'm not sure, but the addition of vowels between them, or at the end of words ending with consonants, I honestly love it so much, it melts my heart, it's like hearing American's saying "Y'all".

I met two Japanese guys in the Irish bar in Shinjuku when I sat at the table next to them. I couldn't find a place to put my backpack, when one of the guys leaned over and gestured to a hook that was under the table for bags and other such items. I thanked him in Japanese, and then responded "Gomenasai gozaimasu! Watashi wa nihongo wo warui desu!" (I am sorry, my Japanese is bad) when he responded to my Japanese in Japanese (that was a mouthful) He then switched over to fluent English and congratulated me for my "flawless" pronunciation of the above sentence (Still not sure if he was being genuine, or if it was Japanese politeness) and explained that he had studied English for a few years in England. We then spent a few hours discussing favourite bands, what we loved about each others countries, and just general banter. Japan is a phenomenal country :) EDIT: 8:12 Her accent made me think she had studied English in England. She has a slight posh accent in how she pronounces words ending with vowels, sort of drawing out the vowel to give a slight regal pronunciation.

For and to whom is the arm of Lord revealed ? For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath No form nor comeliness ; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men; a men of sorrows , and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our grief , and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was all . He was oppressed , and he was afflicted , yet he opened not his mouth : he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter , and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openers not his mouth. He was taken from prison From judgment: and who shall declare this generation? For He was cut off out of the land of the living: for he was cutting off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence , neither was any deceit in his mouth. Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him ; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin he shall see his seed , he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul , and shall be satisfied : by His knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many ; for he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore Will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the spoil with the strong ; because he hath pored out his soul unto death : and he was numbered with the transgressor ; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

The last woman is very good at English. She indicated she has been studying English since she was little. That has paid off. In general it takes a huge amount of time for Japanese speakers to learn English and vice versa. The two languages are so, so different. Young children can learn two languages quite well but by the time you're a teenager, it's a long uphill struggle.

I've lived in Tokyo for 1,5 years and I hope to stay for much longer. I absolutely love it and am near fluent in the language after constant study and hard work. If you have trouble finding people that open up to you like previous commenter and living or plan to live in japan, I would recommend living in a sharehouse or the new "social residence". It's absolutely amazing. The social residences sometimes house more than 100 people and it's generally 50% japanese people. In my social residence, there's 150 people, tennis court, biljard table, table tennis, office space for study etc and much more. There's always someone in the living room to talk to and if you make an effort to make friends, they'll open up without a doubt! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. :)
