Let's learn Japanese

The class started last December... with about 10 participants attended the introductory class.

Currently the participants are students and ex-students of MEBM (Master in Engineering Business Management) only. MEBM is a program under Razak School of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM).

Ok, let's learn some simple Japanese phrases...

Start with greetings (please click on the Japanese words for pronunciation sampling):
note: the link goes to About.com web page; pronunciation by Japanese native speaker

* Good Morning - Ohayo
* Good Afternoon - Konnichiwa
* Good Evening - Konbanwa
* Good Night - Oyasumi nasai (before go to bed)

* Irasshaimase - Welcome (to greet customers)

* Congratulation - Omedetou Gozaimasu

* Happy Birthday - Otanjobi Omedetou Gozaimasu
* Happy New Year - Shinnen Akemashite Omedetou Gozaimasu

* Safe Journey! - Ki o tsukete kudasai

I will give example of how to pronounce it later...
