hm . those who want to learn japanese . well these are simple . for really really novice people .
(1) Ohayou gozaimasu. おはようございます。 (Good morning)
(2) Konnichiwa. こんにちは。 (Hello/Good afternoon)
(3) Konbanwa. こんばんは。 (Good evening)
(4) Oyasuminasai. おやすみなさい。 (Good night)
Unlike English, it is mostly used before going to bed.
(5) Sayonara. さよなら。 (Good-bye)
(6) Doumo arigatou gozaimasu どうもありがとうございます (thank you very much)
(7) Hajimemashite はじめまして (how do you do?)
(8) Kochira こちら (this person)
(9) Doko どこ (is a casual way of asking the same question)
In Singapore, people will just say "HUH"
(10) Dochira どちら is a less direct and more polite way of asking "where"
alright . let's continue our lesson next time xD
