English in Japan

alt.Kyoto-Street.jpg

• Out of the main centres, English is not widely spoken, which can lead to problems when you are looking for somewhere to eat. Although, if you are prepared to take the gamble and point to a picture on their menus which generally show a photo of each dish, you will be fine!

• Public transport was generally easy as the buses had English signs running across a board announcing each stop, as well as usually the stop being announced in both Japanese and English. The shinkansen and trains also announce the next stop in English.

• Many signs are in English, especially in tourist destinations.

• It can be difficult to make yourself understood in less touristy areas, but sign language and a good dictionary will do a lot to convey the message!
