Before all you holier-than-thou people jump in and call me racist,I am AWARE. That Japan also speaks Japanese. But I didn't know that Chinese was not spoken AT ALL by the common population.

Funny, Mr. Threedots Notaracist, why did you think Japanese people would speak Chinese?

Is there like any historical context to justify misunderstanding that speaking Mandarin was common in Japan?

I met a Chinese citizen at university, she knew Korean and Japanese,

maddened but not Russian.

Maybe when Japan took all of Manchuria, but if you knew any historical context you'd know that the Japanese don't speak Chinese domestically
