@momomoko_jp: No, you don't need to "learn Japanese" for your trip. You need these 5 words and the right moment for each: 👋 WORD 01 — こんにちは (konnichiwa): the all-day hello. Staff yelling いらっしゃいませ needs NO reply 🙏 WORD 02 — ありがとうございます (arigatou gozaimasu): every register, every held door 🙋 WORD 03 — すみません (sumimasen): sorry + excuse me + "hey" — one word, three jobs 🫴 WORD 04 — おねがいします (onegaishimasu): point at anything + this = a polite request ✨ WORD 05 — ごちそうさまでした (gochisousama deshita): the restaurant goodbye that makes staff light up Save this for the plane 🔖 📲 Practice saying them out loud — search "Kana Language Partner" in your app store Which one did you already know? 👇 #japantravel #japantraveltips #learnjapanese
