A Lil help on JP Phrases..

[Sweetness]

Now, being a FFXI player i have no choice but to speak JP (the game isnt even out in USA yet) so, you must adapt. Now most JP players do speak a minimal amount of english but rarely will you find someone who speaks both. But with a phew helpful phrases, you can earn their respect, and not be ignored


Ok. i suggest whenever you join a Group you say "yoroshiku". This Basically means "Welcome/Nice to Meet you". If you quickly follow that up with "Nihongo ga sukoshi wakarimasu" then hopefully they will understand you a little better. This means "I speak very little japanese", and hopefully they will be a little more considerate. "eigo Dekimasenka" could be used also, this is asking if they speak english, and "Eigo hanashimasu" means I speak English.

some simple words that can help you interact also

hai = yes
iie = no
ieie = no problem/dont worry
kinisinaide = no problem/dont worry
omedetou = congrats! (like when they level up)
arigatou = thankyou
gomen = sorry
sajounara = bye
tusukete = help


It is also considered, in a JP team to go blurting English all over chat. Keep you EN to a minimum and they wont get angry, if you do have to speak, keep it as simple as you can!



anyway, thats all im gonna say, i never have played PSO online so this all could be rubbish but as i play FFXI and am always interacting with JP people, it surely must help
