Episode 46 is a thoughtful mix of reflections, current issues, and practical insights!

First, we share thoughts on yesterday’s livestream test, reflecting on what worked well and areas for improvement. It’s all about fine-tuning the experience for future streams.

Next, we dive into the issue of fake Japan-related posts circulating on social media. From misinformation about earthquakes to AI-generated disinformation campaigns, this segment highlights the importance of verifying sources and staying informed in the digital age.

For language enthusiasts, we follow up on the topic of bilingual personalities, exploring how language use can influence behavior, emotions, and even identity. It’s a fascinating continuation of our discussion on the dynamic nature of bilingualism.

We also take a closer look at the invoice seido (qualified invoice system) in Japan. This system, introduced in October 2023, impacts how businesses handle consumption tax credits and invoices. We break down its key features and implications for businesses and consumers.

Finally, as always, we wrap up with our "Word of the Day" segment, introducing another practical term to enrich your Japanese vocabulary.

From digital awareness to linguistic exploration, this episode has something for everyone!
