Posted in: Why are Japanese so bad at English? See in context
I agree with those who pointed out the lack of practice for Japanese and the reason behind is shyness for sure. Because, Japanese do want to speak English, but they are afraid to turn idiots in front of others. The other reason is probably the difference between the grammatical construction between western languages and Nihongo (Japanese language). This complicate the reasoning and speaking for Japanese trying English and Gaijin that strive to learn Japanese as well.
