There are many languages ​​in the world, and it is most ideal to convey information to all foreigners in their native language, but there are some difficulties in reality.
Many foreigners can understand simple Japanese, so “friendly Japanese” is an effective means of communication.
Would you like to speak slowly in “friendly Japanese” instead of quitting thinking that “you must speak in English to foreigners” and “cannot speak because you cannot speak foreign languages”?

Easy Japanese effect

In the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake of 1995, many foreigners in Japan were also damaged. Some of them were left behind from necessary information because they could not fully understand the Japanese and English provided. It was the beginning of “Easy Japanese” that was conceived so that appropriate actions could be taken in the event of a disaster.

At present, “friendly Japanese” is attracting attention and spreads in various fields nationwide such as administrative information, daily life information, and daily news transmission as a means of communication in daily life as well as in the event of a disaster.
