How To Learn Japanese

Of course any language has thousands of words, but only a small portion of those are in use in everyday life and important if you want to learn Japanese language. 
It's not the number of common Japanese words that you know, it's which words you know.

Most of the communication during your time in Tokyo will be on basic subjects – shopping, Tokyo Restaurants and asking for directions on the street.
You can learn Japanese Language in a matter of days, and start talking with the locals. That way you can get into some adventures off the beaten Tokyo tourism path.

The key is choosing the right basic Japanese word list to learn.
Below is a Japanese word list of some of the most common Japanese words.
This list is by no means complete, but should help you get around during your time in Tokyo.
