English For Japanese

These 50 essential English phrases cover greetings, courtesy, introductions, clarification, time, and plans. The Japanese meanings help you establish the situation, but your goal is to connect the English directly to a person and purpose. Practice each phrase as part of a two-line exchange, not as an isolated translation.

Useful English phrases perform small actions: greet, clarify, locate, request, pay, arrange, and respond. These 100 examples use neutral everyday English and natural question forms. Learn the likely reply with every question so that your practice prepares you for a conversation rather than a one-line performance.

The first 100 English words you learn should help build messages, not merely label objects. This list balances pronouns, connectors, common verbs, descriptions, places, transport, and practical nouns. Learn each word inside one short phrase, then recombine it in a real task.

Shopping in English tests numbers, sizes, product questions, and payment language at the same time. Japanese speakers should pay special attention to pairs such as thirteen/thirty and fourteen/forty, where English stress changes the meaning.
