when i was in japan i tried to order a drink by name off the menu but i read it very wrong and the waiter looked at me like i just said absolute nonsense so i just had to swallow my pride and point to what i wanted and i still carry that humiliation with me when i practice japanese. i cant speak it out loud. what if i sound like a fucking idiot again

#spitblaze says things #i did try my best to speak japanese otherwise! i didnt remember much but i had enough to ask for basic stuff #which is really all you need in tokyo/osaka. or just saying 'nihongo chiisai desu' and showing them what you plugged into google translate #but that one spectacularly failed drink order. idk if ill ever be able to do anything except point and say 'kore' ever again...............
