Hi! I'm a Japanese person living in Japan.
Have you ever wanted to ask a Japanese person something, but didn't know who to ask?
Feel free to ask me in English!
For example:
・Is this Japanese phrase natural?
・Would this sound rude or strange in Japan?
・What does this expression really feel like to a Japanese person?
・Is something I saw in anime, games, or social media actually common in Japan?
・What would a Japanese person think about this?
・Or just something random you're curious about!
You don't need a serious question. Small, weird, or very specific questions are welcome too :)
I'll answer from my perspective as one Japanese person. If the answer depends on the person, generation, region, or situation, I'll try to explain that too.
You can also send me a short Japanese sentence and ask how it sounds to me. I can suggest a more natural expression when needed.
How it works
Send me one topic or question in English or Japanese.
I'll answer through Coconala chat. You can ask follow-up questions about the same topic.
