Meeting & Greeting
For individuals attending business meetings in Japan, mastering basic Japanese phrases (jp-JP) is essential for effective communication. Whether you're meeting new colleagues or clients, knowing how to greet, introduce yourself, and ask simple questions can help create a positive first impression and facilitate smoother interactions.
When greeting someone, saying 'こんにちは' (konnichiwa) or 'こんばんは' (konbanwa) will make you sound polite and attentive. Additionally, knowing common phrases like 'すみません' (sumimasen) for apologies or 'お願いします' (onegaishimasu) when making requests can enhance your ability to meet and greet with confidence during Japanese business meetings.
