Japan has a very large percentage of people who speak Japanese, roughly 98% of people living in Japan speak the language. To put that into perspective, in the United States roughly 80% of people living there can speak English fluently.

On the one hand, Japan has the 2nd largest economy in the world, with world-famous innovative brands in manufacturing, etc. On the other hand, its language and culture are steeped in the deepest of traditions dating back thousands of years.

Japanese characters are a world different from the traditional English alphabet. The Japanese language has a much more easily identified alphabet compared to Chinese, though their characters may look the same. As Asian countries continue to grow in popularity, their culture becomes more prevalent in Western society. Japanese culture is everywhere in the western world – from the technology we use to video games.
