뜻
Stating one's name or identity.
문화적 배경
Introductions are often accompanied by a bow (ojigi). The depth of the bow reflects the level of respect. Exchanging business cards (meishi) is essential. You say your name while handing the card with both hands. Students often introduce themselves to the class at the start of the semester. Using 'Watakushi' instead of 'Watashi' is preferred in speeches or formal ceremonies.
The Silent U
In 'desu', the 'u' is almost always silent. Don't pronounce it as 'des-oo'.
Don't over-use 'Watashi'
In Japanese, you can often drop 'Watashi wa' if it's clear you are talking about yourself.
