"As a native Japanese speaker, I get annoyed when I come across English
articles that tout Japanese buzzwords like
ikigai. They’re not commonly used
in our day-to-day conversations. Ikigai is more like a stock word thrown in job
interviews or autobiographies.
Instead of those fancy words, I’d like to introduce my three favorite Japanese
words. They’re basic words but each carries a cultural richness that defies
translation into a single English word."
Share and enjoy,
