Hey /jp/

When going to japan is it necessary to know japanese when ordering at restaurants or buying shit from stores?

Why do you have to use an Alice pic for trolling purposes? Use something /b/ related so it's easier to recognize.

Just speak to them in english.

When going to japan you must attend a three day lecture learning every nuance of their culture lest you offend one of them and cause an international incident

Some restaurants have their menu in the main window (with the actual dishes) with numbers and can understand english numbers. And they can be somewhat cheap.

just show what you want with your index finger, unless you're some kind of amputee

You could probably get away with learning a few phrases.

**** ga arimasuka? = do you have ****?
kore/sore kudasai = this/that please
ikura desuka? = how much?

Then ask them to show you the cost in western numerals, and use really basic English if there's any confusion.

Also, don't be afraid whenever you enter a store and the staff stop whatever they're doing to shout something at you. Chances are it's just IRASSHAIMASE!!!, which is a good thing.
