What do you say when asked to say something in Japanese?
At break with coworkers today, I mentioned learning Japanese since a bit over a year now. I was then asked to say something in Japanese, but I couldn't really think of anything good.
On my way home, I formulated a little something that I could say the next time I get asked:
「今月に桜が綺麗です。」
Do any of you have such default sentences, and if so, what are they?
Edit: Wikipedia has the following as an example:
「太陽が東の空に昇る。」
すみません、日本語は話しません
Not Japanese, but I know some Russian and my go to sentence was always ‘what do you want me to say?’
いい天気だね。
僕の日本語は下手です
何か云って。
私はほとんど日本語を話せません
Probably the only phrase I can speak coherently
Edit: spelling mistakes
I'm assuming you meant 「私は」 and 「話せません」
Yeah, I used translate as a keyboard and failed to do that properly
I always just say 「何か」. They never seem to find it as funny as I do.
わかりません、私は日本語が話せないので、このコメントを書くのにグーグル翻訳を使いました。
