Lesson 54

Wednesday, May 4th, 2022

Today’s business Japanese is “Douchou-atsuryoku”

 

Japanese people feel relief when he/she is same as the others.  When he/she goes to the drinking party he/she is supposed to drink beer if others drink beer.

 

That is because we only have the same race, same language, and the same religion people in Japan, which is similar idea as “Mura-shakai” mentioned before.

 

In the meeting we are supposed not to speak out the opposition.

This is also same idea as “Kuuki-o-yomu”, explained previously.

 

Thus, we call the atmosphere to press same thoughts and same opinion to others “Douchou-atsuryoku”.  “Douchou-atsuryoku” is specific to Japan and is considered bad because diversity is not admitted.  And we try to change the atmosphere these days in Japan.
