Hi friends,
Nice to be with you all. I am Haihao, ‘secret’ years old, living in a ‘cornor’ of Japan, teaching business translations between Japanese and Chinese. In fact, Haihao is of the Chinese pronunciation for a Japanese name. I was graduated from a university in China. My favorate subject was European-American literature. Sounds funny, eh?
See you later.

Hi Mba, it’s nice to see you and read your message. Thank you for your compliments to my country. Ever visited Japan?
Well, I am afraid I have to say my age is enigmatic as Mt. Fuji but I can give you the English meaning of my name: ‘sea lover’. I was graduated from a Chinese university.
I believe you live in the center of the great religions. I hope I can visit there someday.
Best regards to you, to all.
Haihao

Hi Haihao
I like Japanese people and I know they are punctual and hard workers …

Best wishes

Hi all friends, good morning, afternoon and evening! It’s really good to be here along with you coming from all over the world and thank you for all your wonderful messages!
Well, TomWelling, I am not sure if I am the first Japanese in this forum but I am sure it’s the first time for me to have the best here in this forum.
Hi Hercules, I suppose you are right. Japanese are generally of shy character. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons why not many Japanese show up here. Well, as for me, I see myself as also a shy person but fortunately I love to know things outside Japan and go see other countries so I feel I am making progress in deeling with my shyness.
Talk to you later.

Hi, Haihao! ‘sea lover’
I think you aren’t lonely Japanese in this website there many from japanese here

by the way, Good morning Mr.Haihao
Regards,
Mba
Enjoy the forum Haiaho!
Good luck!
Hi Haihao
Like you , I’m so shy and I like that …
But , Do you think that shyness makes shy people have a lot of difficulties at their life ? and how can they ignore that ?
What is your opinion ???
Herc
Hi friends,
I am glad to know I’m not ‘a lone wolf’ in here. Actually I have already got so many nice friends! Thank you!
I’m so shy too, Herc, but I don’t feel anything wrong with it, that is to say I quite like that too…
Well…, it’s a little shy to say something about shyness (^-^)… but I do feel it brings me some hesitation and obstacle in friend-making, party-going, talking, etc. On the other hand, I feel easy and safe with it and I don’t need to go for much. I love the character of Melanie in ‘Gone with the wind’ and I admire her self-effacement.
Talk to you later.

Hi, Haihao:
Nice to meet you ! You mean your Japanese name sounds like “haihao” in Chinese? I can’t find the pronunciation of “hao” in Japanese , But why do you use a Chinese nickname here? Are you a Chinese working in Japan?
Hi FangFang,
It’s nice to meet you here, too. It seems you know about Japanese and if you do, I can give you some hint about ‘haihao’. You know, a lot of Kanji can pronounce ‘hao’ in PinYin. For example, goukai’s gou, suki, bangou’s gou, etc., no end of them. As you may have already konwn, haihao’s hai is ‘sea’, well, how about hao? I wish I could give you more but you would then figure out my real name. I will be feeling a little embarrassed for now if my real name is dug out. I am sorry… 
I am sorry too, FangFang, that I am not a Chinese working in Japan but a Japanese working in Japan. In fact, I spent my student life in China for a long time. I love China and still take tours to China every couple of years so far.
Talk to you next time.

Hi Haihao
My compliments. Your English is really excellent!
I’m curious about and interested in hearing more about your job. Could you tell us a little more? You said “teaching business translations” – So, that sounds different from “teaching a language”. What languages does your work involve?
Looking forward to hearing lots more.
Amy
Hi Amy,
Thank you so very much for your compliment. I am really really happy to hear…, though a little embarrassed… But honestly speaking, since I have been sparing no pains in trying to improve my English, the most favorate language of mine, for no less than 3 years, your encouragement has doubtlessly infused me with new vigor to help me go farther and make my dream come true.
We use the term ‘buniness translation’ here in Japan to indicate an occupation dealing with a variety of translations for business letters, reports, product manuals, etc. What I am teaching now is just as you said not the language itself but the skills and techniques how to perform such kind of translations effectively and efficiently. The languages involved with me now are Japanese and Chinese.
I love to learn language, Amy, or to be more boldly speaking, I love language itself. Languages bring me the world just as I wish to embrace and the dreams I wish to conceive.
Sorry for the harangue-like talking and thanks again.
My best regards and respects,
haihao
Hi,Haihao! :o
First let me say the sweetest hello to Haihao 
I like sharing you in my mind about idea of shying :oops: …
I think the shying not well for man, especial if he deals a lot of clients or people.
He should have the audaciousness and he must merry enough to take their attention.
And another way I love the shying in woman because I think it create from her :oops: too beautiful.
regards,
Mba
Haihao
Nice to meet you!
Wa ta shi Tom des.
Hi, Tom:
I prefer “Wa ta shi wa Tom de si” 
Hi FangFang
Can you explain to all of us non-experts what the difference is? What did Tom actually say and how is your version different?
