Hi, 

Your article is the first of the five life.in-japan artchles we
received so far.  I found the article in junk; the control for
life.in-japan creation seems to have failed to come.  Anyway, I
created the newsgroup locally in our site.

So do I. I'm happy to know our long waiting was not futile.

I don't think they have any reason to refuse your cooperation, since
you can communicate with others in such a good Japanese as:

So, here I've got a problem that's been bugging me ever since I got to
Japan. It does not have much to do with living in Japan, except that
it's a byproduct of trying to getting this done around here. Feel free
to redirect this to truly appropriate groups.

Question 1: How can I obtain documentation in English about using Wnn
	(the kanji-conversion business in Nemacs)?

Question 1b: If the answer of Q1 is not available, how can I get the
conversion process to do what I want? In particular, how can I change
the way it breaks a word into parts?
  E.g.: I want to type in the name Iwano, but the #$*% program splits
it up as "$@$$!C4D$N(J" (in ascii: 'I' + 'wano'), meaning that it never finds
the kanji for "iwa".

So, we are almost the same ! I came in January 25, 1992, and will 
drink a lot in January 23, 1993 (because it is saturday) to celebrate !
I really like being here.

I guess it is one of the right places. At least, you can make all
questions you want in English (I suppose you, like me, cannot speak
good Japanese yet) or any language that somebody can answer.
One tip: I guess it is very important to communicate with the
Japanese people. Make some Japanese friends is a very good
method, and almost all of them are good-will people (you can see
some of them in this group :-)

Have a nice stay !

Hello All.

I'm glad to see this group has finally been created.  I hope it can
provide a useful and relatively low-heat discussion on topics that
face non-japanese living in Japan.

I'm Curtis Eubanks, an American working for Sony Corporation at our
corporate headquarters in Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo.  I've been here just
over three years, working on a multimedia/hypermedia system for Sony's
research laboratories.

I read in last week's TIME magazine that the Japan Travel Bureau is
offering free trips from Yokohama to Hakone to tourists who are
willing to spend 90-minutes picking up garbage along a Hakone lake.
Has anyone taken advantage of this offer?  Is it available to foreign
residents as well?

There is a tool called kanjishelltool, which runs under SunView.
Unfortunately, it requires a font of GMW window system; its documents

Well, there was a discussion (one of the 513 concerning the creation of
fj.life.in-japan :-) about use of English, Japanese, ISO???? and so on.
I believe (just my opinion) that in international groups in USENET,
people uses english because it is a common spoken language. In 
soc.culture groups, sometimes the main language is not english. For the
same reason, in the fj.groups so far, only Japanese was used.
So, when Japanese people post to non-fj groups, they use english, and
we can see that a lot of Nihonjins can do it pretty well, but the 
inverse is not true. How many gaijins you know that can post in Japanese
in fj.groups ?
Maybe it is the reason for the so-called USENET readers demand. 
I just pointed out some facts, any other opinion will be welcome.

Any soccer fans out there? As you may know, Japan won the
Asian Cup on Sunday for the first time. They also played a
game with Iran which Japan won 1-0 but there is something
very strange about that game. Iran only needed a tie to
advance but Japan needed to win. The game was a 0-0 tie
until 3 minutes to the end when Japan scored the only goal.
So far, so good but in the second half three Iranian
players were given the red card! Iran's soccer is very
strong at the Asian level and Iran was in fact favored
to win (they won the Asian Games Soccer in 1990). The
team is not known for violent play and as I said they
needed only a tie. Three red cards is very unusual and
I have been wondering just what happened. Did anyone
see that game? If so, can you let me know what took
place?

I don't know the mean pay for such a work, but it seems reasonable judging
from the average part time fee for Japanese students.  It would be much nice
if it would be higher by about 100 yen :-)

I suppose many boys and girls of the same/near age to you come together.
Many of them are from various college/universities in Japan.  So, I can 
suggest you " Don't worry, but you cannot expect they can speak English". 
Of course, they have been learning English more than 6 years, however,
I can guess they cannot speak/hear English.   As you have now much time
to learn Japanese, I recommend you do concentrate your effort to shape
up your ability to speak Japanese.

However, I can also guess that you need not so much words, because you are
in the same generation.

PS.  where is that skii lodge ?

>There is a variation they call "fried toufu",
>served more or less the same way. Do anybody out there know the name ?
Name of that tofu-dish is 'Agedashi Dofu'.

Simple recepi of 'Agedashi Dofu'
1) Cut tofu into 2-inchs cube.
2) Wrap each cube of tofu by papertowel and press lightly. Wait for an hour.
  (Place tofus on tilted cooking board and put another cooking board)
3) Unwrap cube of tofu, and coat them with 'katakuri-ko' or corn starch.
4) Deep fry them.
5) Prepare 'ten-tsuyu' (dip source for templa) and warm it.
   (ready made 'soba-tsuyu' is good for ten-tsuyu. Just add water to it)
6) Put fried tofus into a bowl, and pour ten-tsuyu on it.
7) Put grinded ginger, grinded radish and/or chopped negi on it if you like.

Tips:
* The step 2) which is called mizu-kiru, is very important. 
You may have trouble when deep fry them if you avoid this step.
* In step 3) , carefully cover tofu by 'katakuri-ko'. If part of tofus'
surface is not coverd, you may have troubel when deep fry them.

	It seems that people who posted in this newsgroup had been living
in Japan quite long. I came here on the end of February 1992 and need
to learn more about Japan.
	My name is Lilik Widjaja, age 23, work here as a software developer
at Advanced Data Controls, Corp. Before coming to Japan, I had spent
about 3 years living in the U.S for BSc in Computer Science. My school
was in Pennsylvania in Indiana (Strange?). I am an Indonesian national,

	I am looking forward to hearing many interesting news and discussion

	Have you ever taste Indonesian Food in Tokyo? I think they were very
similar to what was in Indonesia.

You can call me Rafel, I really don't mind... But dont get me

or, as I ate it before in a yakitori shop, steaked with 
negi... Delicious.
I can eat it simple, with soy sauce and negi, too. But I am always
