Japanese in 30 – day 2

Second lesson – greetings.
This is a great classic of self-teaching language courses.
Maybe you can’t speak the lingo, but you can at least be polite enough to greet those you meet.
So, Konnichiwa, Konbanwa… but also Dozo Yoroshiku.
The best bit is the half-page primer on meeting the Japanese – bow low, don’t make eye contact, don’t smile.
Oh, c’mon…
