Has anyone received their 日本は長いですか yet?
It happened to me twice today !
Inside I was trying not to laugh while I recalled this video…
I once wrote a grammatical incorrect post on HelloTalk about how I was learning Japanese, and somebody replied with “日本語上手!”
And in that moment, I knew, that people weren’t joking when they say that Japanese people will always tell you 日本語上手, even when your Japanese is trash.
At first I translated 「日本は長いですか」 as “Is Japan long?” which seemed weird.
But it seems, in this context it means “Have you been in Japan for long?”
Wot.
I’ve gotten 日本に住んでますか on iTalki which I guess would be below 日本は長いですか and above 日本語上手. It is however still shit
I get 日本に慣れていますか (are you used to Japan) every once in a while which I’m not sure is a good thing seeing as I’ve been here a year now? Am I doing something wrong that people feel the need to comment on? But eh I’ll take it over 日本語上手. No 日本は長いですか quite yet though.
