過去簡單式

If I hugged a Japanese person upon meeting the first time I would surprise them?

You have green eyes right? I am so jealous of that!

Hey guys and girls on Ask Japanese it's Cathy Cat.

Where is that jealousy that Japanese girls feel

Today we're gonna check out one of our most popular videos

and talk you through a couple of those steps that girls keep telling us actually

quite a lot over the last couple of years so...

Would I shock a Japanese person if I hugged them on first meet?

Hey it's cathy Cat and today we have come to shibuya to ask

girls what they envy about foreingers so let's go and ask Japanese.

If I'd known that this video would get 2 million views I would have worn something nicer....

Foreigners can get easily excited about things. They are nice even to strangers.

They can hug people upon meeting them for the very first time!

Japanese people would get super surprised if you did that to them!

If I hugged a Japanese person on the first meeting,

I would shock them? - They would be SHOCKED!!!

Right number one is how you react to strangers. "Shoutaimen" is the word

for a person that you met for the first time.

In English you would say stranger, but actually if you

it goes "the person that you are meeting for the very first time" so...

it might be a friend that gets introduced to you by another friend it might be a colleague...

Any person that you're meeting for the very first time and they said...

Being friendly and open to someone you are meeting for the very first time is not to be taken for granted

Shy... quite shy especially with strangers and there is actually a word for it in Japanese....

Which means pretty much like... being shy to people.

not just shy in general but shy to like new people that you're meeting.

I think that really crystallizes out how Japanese people feel a little bit timid

naturally which might be a handshake.... a hug....

or maybe even those kisses on the cheek....

that people used to do for introductions with each other...

Japanese will never be too close to a stranger, generally...

If you meet a stranger and you get introduced to someone, you don't touch...

You will have full on conversations and such without touching at all...

Not when you say hello and even not when you say goodbye.

I like that foreigners have such a good style.

Ok the size of the eyes is often discussed.

Not in this video but in some of the other videos we spoke about as well is the...

Japanese people take a lot of or put a lot of attention on what kind of

eye crease you have. How big the width is from your crease from your first....

If there is a crease, if there is not a crease... these are all things

that as a westerner I have never really cared about...

But even speaking with some of my colleagues they would say Oh yeah...

she did this with her crease and also in recent interviews when we talked

Many people would say that girls would get surgery in order to

create the eye crease or try to create it with makeup.

"Style ga ii" (good style) When I started this first I was like "Oh"

"People are stylish" in the English word sense which you mean like

It pretty much means Tall-skinny-slender those kind of

You don't say "good style" to someone who is dressed fashionably you say it to

someone who... will look good in that kind of skinny fit fashion.

Which I at first didn't realize when I started doing this...

There seems to be an image that Westerners are all very tall and pretty....

Because that's what people see here in the media.

Not just "stylish" but you know, perfect.

So that's a thing that many people actually mentioned so yeah.

When you go to H&M you see western models, makes still sense,
