Ahh, I see. I'm sorry, Shuji. That must be difficult. Moreso if other people don't understand all the nuances.

It's not a really big deal. Most of the time I'm speaking English if I'm not talking to my family anyway.

That's true! But I can tell you from experience, it's really nice to be able to speak to someone in your native language, especially if that language is a little uncommon! It's a nice kind of familiarity.

I'm a first-generation immigrant. I think of English as my native language.

Oh, oops, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have assumed.

It's okay! Japan's still a part of my heritage, I've just never been there myself.
