    Frequently Asked Questions about Japan

    Understanding why you want to learn Japanese, whether for travel, business, or cultural appreciation, can drive your learning. Consistent practice in reading, writing, speaking, and listening is essential. Joining communities such as language exchange forums or apps like Tandem can enhance practice and motivation. Work on real projects, such as watching Japanese dramas or reading manga.‎

    The Asian island nation of Japan is home to over 125 million people, as well as one of the world’s most fascinating and unique cultures. Learning about Japan can be important whether you’re interested in the history of its prominent and changing role in global affairs, its popular and influential art, music, and animated movie genres such as anime, or Japanese cuisine such as sushi, sashimi, and tempura.

    Learning about Japan can also be important for careers in business. According to the World Bank, Japan has a gross domestic product (GDP) of over $4 trillion, making it the world’s third largest economy. Leading Japanese companies such as Toyota, Mitsubishi, and Softbank are some of the world’s largest industrial and technology firms, and understanding the basic rules of Japanese etiquette can be critical to developing business relationships and closing deals.‎

    Given the size of Japan’s economy, a familiarity with Japanese language and culture can be a tremendous asset for careers in many industries - particularly the technology sector, where Japan has long been a global leader. Even understanding the basics of Japanese pronunciation, communication, and etiquette can help bridge gaps in the business world that can be challenging for foreign companies given the specificities of the country’s business culture.

    If you become fluent or near-fluent in the Japanese language, you can pursue a career as an interpreter or translator. This career path can offer exciting opportunities to travel, work with prominent business and political figures, and delve deeply into important texts of Japanese poetry and fiction. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, interpreters and translators earned a median annual salary of $51,830 in 2019, and these jobs are expected to grow much faster than average due to the increasing globalization of the economy.‎

You also may enjoy learning about Japan if you like watching anime, playing video games, reading manga, or making sushi. Understanding cultural influences may deepen your understanding and appreciation of them.‎

You also may follow your interests and study specific topics associated with the country, like anime, manga, samurai, video games, and haiku. If you like learning about the arts and humanities, consider learning more about Japanese poetry, calligraphy, and music.‎
