2.2 CULTURE
Unlike European cultures, Japanese do not call
someone’s first name easily. It is always better
to start with calling with their family name. In
this case, you must add “san” after the family
name.
Here is an example:
たなかさん (Tanaka san)
= Mr./Ms./Mrs. Tanaka
Tanaka is one of the most common family
names.
Among the same genders, especially young
women, are likely to address with the first name
very quickly. In Japan, however, people do not
address married people (both men and women)
with their first name. For someone’s mother,
Japanese often call her,
“Child’s name + no + Okaasan.”
2.3 LESSON 1: PRONOUNS
First, we will look through pronouns in Japanese.
Japanese language does have pronouns for
“you”, “he”, and “she”, but they usually do not
use the pronouns. Instead, they just use the
person’s name. We will look examples later.
