In March 2024, I released “Japanese&Chinese Business conversations Episode II”, a conversation app that allows you to learn Business Japanese and Business Chinese at the same time.
The subtitle is an app for memorizing entire sentences by learning Japanese and Chinese at the same time.
This business conversation app is a language app that I would like to recommend to everyone who is struggling on their own in the business scene around the world.
The concept is “Memorize Japanese and Chinese at the same time and lead business in the world! ”
With the app, you can watch a conversation between two people, like the example below, in order from Japanese to English to Chinese, assuming you have memorized the whole thing.
@Scene No.008
Speaker A：English I’ve heard so much about you.
Japanese あなたのお噂は、いつも聞いております。
Chinese 我常常听到你的事呢。(Pynin:Wǒ chángcháng tīng dào nǐ de shì ne)
@Scene No.009
Speaker B：English This is our first time actually meeting, isn't it?
Japanese お会いするのは初めてですよね。
Chinese 这是我第一次见到你，不是吗？(Pynin:Zhè shì wǒ dì yī cì jiàn dào nǐ, bùshì ma?)
@Scene No.024
Speaker B：English Could you give me some tips for my self-introduction?
Japanese 自己紹介の内容について、なにか、アドバイスはありますか？
Chinese 你对自我介绍的内容有什么建议吗？(Nǐ duì zìwǒ jièshào de nèiróng yǒu shénme jiànyì ma?)
@Scene No.025
Speaker A：English Well, according to this secretarial manual, ...
Japanese そうですね、この秘書マニュアルによりますと、・・・
Chinese 那么，根据这份秘书手册，・・・(Nàme, gēnjù zhè fèn mìshū shǒucè,)
The main app features include:
-Freely set the number of times each line (in each language) is uttered up to 10 times: To memorize whole sentences
-Playback in Japanese, English or Chinese only: To test your ability
-Set playback speed from x0.5x to x1.5x: Learn at your preferred speed that suits your ability.
-Select and play only your favorite scenes: A learning method that accelerates memorization of whole sentences
In addition, as shown below, it can be customized according to each level.
-Equipped with a text-format memo function for each scene so that you can add your own expressions and advices to enrich your expressiveness.
Unlike travel or general conversations, Japanese business conversations require building a relationship of trust with your business partner.
The most important thing when dealing with business situations in a foreign language is being able to express 100% of what you need to convey in sentences.
In case you can't understand a foreign language spoken by the other person at all, even if you say something that you already know, such as
“もう一度、お願いします。” or "请再说一遍。(Qǐng zàishuō yībiàn.)" ,
if you can't hear something the first time, there's almost no chance you'll catch it the second time, and the atmosphere of the meeting will freeze, leading to sad results.
But, if you use a sentence that asks a question such as, “Did you just say this? “, the conversation will proceed based on the content of your sentence.
Then, the initiative shifts to you, and you can finally fulfill your responsibilities in your business.
If you can speak Japanese or Chinese at a level that matches the needs of the workplace and learn how to speak in the sentences, you will be able to play an active role in the business scene.
What you need in business conversations is to speak in your own words, and always in sentences, not in words.
The first thing you should train is speaking, not listening.
Through the increase in number of memorized phrases, you can instantly respond to and speak during business conversations.
Let’s take the initiative in meetings with business partners and have fun playing an active role in the global business scenes.
I hope this app is useful to you.
I look forward to your continued patronage.
