Hello, it's Jane again!

This photo has recently become a hot topic on my SNS!

Handsome Mr. Miller.

Do you know this character?

He's Mike Miller!

The average Japanese person may not know about Mr. Miller, but I think all foreigners who are learning Japanese know about Mr. Miller.

Actually, Mr. Miller is the main character of everyone's Japanese!

Minna no Nihongo: An introductory book for people who want to study Japanese.

Mr. Miller in the past and Mr. Miller now

Several novels and goods about Mr. Miller have been released! He's very popular.

Since joining the company, I have enrolled in a business Japanese school. They taught me not only honorific language, but also how to behave appropriately in many real-life situations.

We say goodbye to Mr. Miller and hello again to Alex.

I spoke like Alex many times, but before taking this class, I could never understand where I was being rude.

However, all of my colleagues were kind and understanding, so I am very grateful.

Currently, more and more people are learning foreign languages. For me, I study not only Japanese but also English. Sometimes there are terms or phrases in English that I would never say in Japanese or Vietnamese. Due to our cultural differences, this custom is not a problem in some countries, but is extremely rude in others. I think it is important to learn about a culture in order to fully speak and understand a language.

The world is becoming increasingly diverse, and the more you know about other cultures and languages, the broader your horizons.

Until the end Thank you for reading! I would really appreciate it if you could share this post and support me!
