Description

This study examines the difficulties advanced Chinese learners of Japanese have with the usage of "ohayo(gozaimasu)" and "konnichiwa" meaning good morning and hello respectively. Twenty Chinese university students who reside in Japan were interviewed about the difficulties they have with these expressions. In addition ten Japanese university professors who have taught Japanese to Chinese students were asked about the problems Chinese learners have with distinguishing these greetings according to time. Results showed that the criteria for differentiating these expressions is not simply restricted to time of day but is also influenced by the first time you met someone who has just started work or study irrespective of the time.
