If you trip to Japan, you will soon realize that you don't have to worry much about language problems. But if you don't understand certain Japanese sentences especially when you buy something, you will have to experience some awkward silence which often lasts about 1 to 3 seconds. Because they want you to decide something important such as the hardness of the noodles, 'take out' or 'eat in the restaurant'. If you don't understand those sentences, either you can't proceed to the next step or they will decide it for you.

Don't worry. From today on, we can study those essential Japanese sentences step by step, so we can have a wonderful trip.
