@japanese_kanta: Telling your Japanese coworkers "daijoubu, daijoubu desu" when you didn't actually get it? Asking again feels rude. You don't want to be the only one who's lost. Then the meeting ends and you don't know what to do. ASK JUST ONE THING ↓ DEADLINE → sumimasen, itsu made ni owarasereba ii desu ka? (すみません、いつまでに おわらせれば いいですか?) By when should I finish? TASK → watashi ga kono shiryou o shuusei suru, to iu koto de atte masu ka? (わたしが この しりょうを しゅうせいする、ということで あってますか?) So I'm revising this document — right? One question beats pretending you understood. Watching it here won't make it come out of your mouth at work. KODAWARI SENSEI — practise the line you couldn't say, with Senseitachi who worked as marketers and engineers. $1 first lesson, link in bio. Save this for the next time you say daijoubu. #japaneseatwork #daijoubu #businessjapanese #workinjapan #learnjapanese
