*1 This may be a kind of literary/writing expression¼ and it's seldom used in conversation. But never is unnatural.*2 Arigato and Arigato gozaimasu. There's no big difference between them, ªArigato gozaimasuº is more polite.*3 (Anata ga inakute) Samishi katta desu : Abbreviated Anata ga inakute.*4 Usually we just say ªExcuse me/ Sumimasenº, and ªCan you help meº is included in this ªSumimasenº.*5 ...san is a very normy. Add after both first and family name like Koizumi san or Jyunichiro san.*6 Thi

s sentence can directly be Oai dekite ureshii desu. If you meet person for the first time, you can say Hajimemashite.*7 Direct translation is Kouun wo inorimasu.*8 Christmas is not really celebrated by the Japanese and therefore Merry Christmas is not a common greeting you would hear.*9 This is one of the Japanese language mysteries, I love you is expressed in progressive aspect like ªI am loving youº. But basically it's seldom used. Instead, Daisuki desu is used casually.I hope the content of this page was useful to you, and that you learned some Japanese phrases, expressions and words.
