After a few random-fun phrases we better get some of the basics down:

• Hello - konnichiwa
• Goodbye/Bye - sayonara
• Good Morning - ohayou
• Good Evening - kommbannwa
• See you tommorrow - mata ashita
• See you later - mata atode
• Thank you - arigatou
• Excuse me - sumimasen
• I'm sorry - gomennasai
  

Gambattene!  (Good Luck!)

I'm always excited when we our co-workers from our Japanese or French/European team visit. I'm facinated by cultures different than my own. It can be very comical when you find things that they do that are odd and they find things that you do are odd.

Leaning new languages is also a great way to learn about diferent cultures because they often have slightly different ways to say the same thing.

For the next few weeks three members of the Japanese Vox team (tanimoto 谷本, Dice ダイス, and Atsushi) have offered to provide three new phrases to learn.

Yesterdays three were centered around going out to a Vox team dinner at King Fish in South Beach:

1. ikimasho - let's go
   
2. onaka suita - I am hungry
3. nomimono o kudasai - I need a drink
   

Today's words:

1. daijobu - no problem
2. wakarimashita - I see or I understand
3. sansei desu - I agree

I can't wait till tomorrows words!
