Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! Gestures are all around us. We make many gestures every day. So many gestures do we make that we are often unaware that we’re making them. They’ve become second nature to us. Just the same for the folk in Japan. Japanese use many gestures, but they’re not the same ones we use. Do you know that some Japanese gestures are thousands of years old? Of course, they may not mean the same thing as they did a thousand years ago. That gesture meaning, “Your donkey is sitting in my cabbage patch making bad smells,” probably isn’t used any more. Learning the gestures of Japanese culture is even more fun than learning the language itself.
