Why we must learn Japanese ?



I lived 7 years in Riyadh, Never tried to learn Arabic with the passion I try to learn Japanese !

Why ? When we can't live and work with any other language in Japan, we must learn Japanese. There are foreigners who think that for living in Japan, knowing the language is not necessary and they can manage with English. Ofcourse they can just manage, but living in a country that also, world's second powerful economy should not be a Just-manage. When we live in Japan, we should try to LIVE IN JAPAN. Otherwise it is a waste of time in our life and a tiresome experience for those who try to help you to live in Japan.

1. Japanese is one of the most difficult language

2. Learning a difficult language is the real test for the brain.

So simple ! Learning Japanese is a real test for the brain !! Computer programming languages will be more easier than Japanese language !

Many Japanese people say learning English is difficult. They shy away from a foreigner with whom they have to speak in English. This 'Avoid' mentality of Japanese people many times get interpreted as Japanese version of racism to many gaikokujins.Eventhough, for living and working in Japan Japanese language is a must, the Kanji, Hiragana, Katakana combination of Japanese and the relatively tough language image makes Japanese attractive to master it.

OVTA

Our Nihongo lessons started on the middle of Feb 2008, just 17 days after my landing in Japan. I know only 'Ohayo gozaimasu' and rest everything was in English.

Company arranged the classes in OVTA - Overseas Vocational Training Association at Kahin Makuhari. My Indonesian friend Mustain-san was my guide in Tokyo. We started for our first lessons on a Saturday early morning from Kiba. We were told how to get into OVTA by train from Kiba. As per plan, we reached Nishi Funabashi and were confused how to go. Finally with the help of company colleagues we reached this building.

(When you bring staff from overseas for training, we back you up to the hilt)

This slogan says when Japanese companies bring staff from overseas, OVTA will support Japanese companies by giving skill training for foreign staff.

This is the reason why we are here in Kahin Makuhari. So, let us enter into OVTA.
