A hornet defending its nest or feeding spot will make a clicking sound to warn away intruders; if you encounter one, retreat. If you are stung, receive prompt medical attention, as prolonged exposure to the venom could cause permanent injury or even death. Volcanoes, storms and typhoons are primarily a potential issue if you are mountain-climbing or sailing, so check the latest information before heading out. Stick to designated footpaths in volcanic areas as volcanic gas may be an issue. Typhoons are rarely physically dangerous, but they still wreak havoc with planes, ferries, and even (if there are landslides) trains and buses. Every neighborhood has an evacuation area, most often the local playground.

Six homes have been damaged in city of Okayama, where a fire started on Mount Kaigara and burned 250 hectares (600 acres) of the forest.
Japan has gone through periods of openness and isolation during its history, therefore its culture is unique, if anything.
Upon approval, you will receive a registered user card valid for either 3 years or until the expiration date of your passport, whichever is sooner.

This is obviously a lot less useful if you don’t want to stay in a different city, but you could always take a bullet train back in the morning or stay in the city for just 1 day before going back on another sleeper train. This isn’t recommended for most travelers, but it can offer tremendous value for people who purchased the Japan Rail Pass. When checking in to any type of accommodation, the hotel is required by law to make a copy of your passport unless you are a resident of Japan. It is a good idea, especially if you are travelling in groups, to present the clerk a photo copy of your passport to speed up check-in. Aside from this, remember that Japan is mostly a cash only country, and credit cards are usually not accepted in smaller forms of accommodation, including small business hotels. With exceptions like some train ticket vending machines and some drink machines from major companies, credit cards are not accepted.

Reserves of foreign exchange and gold

Tension between old and new is apparent in all phases of Japanese life. A characteristic sensitivity to natural beauty and a concern with form and balance are evident in such cities as Kyōto and Nara, as well as in Japan’s ubiquitous gardens. Even in the countryside, however, the impact of rapid Westernization is evident in many aspects of Japanese life. A smaller fire was detected in the mountainous village of Aso in the Kumamoto prefecture on the southern main island of Kyushu earlier Sunday, but it was extinguished early Monday, according to the Fire and Disaster Management Agency. Local media said the fire started while residents were burning trash.

Nationality

Space here is tight so it’s hard to get in (your best bet is on a weekday), but once you get into your rolls, you won’t really care about a wait. Hiroki’s $155, 20-course omakase has been around forever, and on most nights, it’s still worth the money. You might eat expertly cooked wagyu beef tongue covered in white bean foam and gold flakes, and spongy matcha tea cake to end your anniversary or birthday dinner. And whether you’re at the crowded sushi bar watching the chefs precisely slice salmon or sitting at one of the intimately lit tables with a group of friends, you’ll feel like everybody working at the Fishtown restaurant can somehow read your mind.

The Americans captured most of the islands in the Pacific, started dropping bombs on Japanese cities, and prepared to invade. The Japanese landscape is rugged, with more than four-fifths of the land surface consisting of mountains. There are many active and dormant volcanoes, including Mount Fuji (Fuji-san), which, at an elevation of 12,388 feet (3,776 meters), is Japan’s highest mountain. Abundant precipitation and the generally mild temperatures throughout most of the country have produced a lush vegetation cover and, despite the mountainous terrain and generally poor soils, have made it possible to raise a variety of crops. Japan has a large and, to a great extent, ethnically homogeneous population, which is heavily concentrated in the low-lying areas along the Pacific coast of Honshu. The fires in the western towns of Okayama, Imabari and Aso broke out Sunday, quickly burning hundreds of hectares (acres).

Onset-glide clusters only occur at the start of syllables but clusters across syllables are allowed as long as the two consonants are the moraic nasal followed by a homorganic consonant. Many projects mentioned in my January 2025 round-up, including Jesse Ito’s dancerobot and Stephen Starr’s Borromini, are still under construction and will be for some time. Plant your bulbs in the fall, and with spring come fresh blooms. Along with daffodils and crocuses, the Philadelphia region is about to be blanketed by newcomers.

IC cards sometimes even give a small discount over cash payments. Children between 6 and 11 are eligible for child (子供用 kodomo-yō) cards entitling holders to half fares. Buying one requires ID, so bring the child’s passport to a commuter pass office (定期券売り場) in any larger station.

Japan’s shrinking population is complicating the country’s efforts to develop a larger indigenous defense sector and decrease its reliance on U.S. weapons and munitions—a crucial pillar of its defense overhaul. In 2023, Japan ranked 32nd on the International Institute for Management Development’s World Digital Competitiveness Ranking—its worst placement since the list began in 2017. The country is facing engineer shortages in the vital chip industry, a shrinking college-age population, and a falling number of doctoral degree recipients, further weakening Japan’s prospects for economic productivity. This all means less brain power for research and development and less physical labor for assembly lines and transportation. The battering of the Liberal Democratic Party in recent national elections has cast doubt on whether these increased investments in defense will be possible.

They’ve got a few to choose from, and you can drown everything from thinly sliced ribeye to an entire platter of seafood in them. Grab some friends, take over a booth, and find out why nobody in your group could’ve won Hell’s Kitchen this year. Additionally, many native Japanese words have become commonplace in English, due to the popularity of many Japanese cultural exports. Words such as sushi, judo, karate, sumo, karaoke, origami, tsunami, samurai, haiku, ninja, sayonara, rickshaw (from 人力車 jinrikisha), futon, tycoon and many others have become part of the English language. Most Japanese people employ politeness to indicate a lack of familiarity.

Learning Japanese

You’ll easily be able to recognize and remember this meaning in any new words you come across containing it, and usually have a good guess at what the word itself means. There’s a common misunderstanding that Kanji is a separate part of Japanese alongside vocabulary and grammar. Kanji is basically the written form of words, and it only makes sense to learn them in the context of a word, not in a vacuum.
