Came across this site during my massive blog surfing research. Japanese Lesson has excellent tips on pronunciation, conversation, and info about Japan. While the blog is very new, if the author keeps up the good work — people who interact with those from Japan or entrenched in the Japanese culture will appreciate this resource.
With the Internet making it possible for us to work without boundaries, having resources like this one would help us ensure we communicate better with each other while ensuring we respect cultural differences and rules.
For example, Paul met with people from Korea. When they handed business cards to him, he took it with both hands. I didn’t know about this. Please share any rules or traditions you know about.
