Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! Now you really feel like you’ve become a part of Japan. The father of your Japanese friend owns a store that sells artificial silk flowers and he has asked you to help her take inventory at his store. “What are we going to do?” you ask her on the way. “We’re going to count each separate inventory item in the store,” she explains in Japanese. Then we will give the information to my father who will match the information with that in the computer. If the numbers match, fine; if not, we have to recount to make sure we have an exact count of each inventory item.” “So this is an important part of business in Japan?” you ask. She replies in Japanese, “It’s an important part of business everywhere. My father’s silk flowers come from all over Japan, and some are very expensive. We must know the inventory.” Well, they must trust your ability to count in Japanese if they’re going to trust you with something as important as inventory. Arriving at the store, you are suddenly overwhelmed. You tell your friend in Japanese, “You did not tell me your father’s flower store was this HUGE!” Hesitant, your friend shyly replies in Japanese, “Well, you will get plenty of practice counting in Japanese. And once we’re finished with the inventory, my father will take us out for a big, wonderful, Japanese dinner with lots of food and sake.”
