Topic	Anyone move to Japan from the US? (As someone who originated from US)
brestugo 09/15/19 10:02:08 PM #13:	I did. I had taken 2-3 years of Japanese prior to moving there. Most Americans there didn't speak any Japanese though. Most things are written in Japanese and English so it's not too hard to get around in the cities. It's a little trickier outside big cities though. One there's less English signage and two the people may speak a dialect or with a strong accent (most Japanese courses teach Tokyo-ben, the Tokyo accent). It took me a couple days to figure out what people were saying when I went to rural Otaru in Hokkaido. --- It's not about the size of the dog in the fight, it's about the size of the fight in the dog. <cite>brestugo posted [p:927494351] in Anyone mov...
