Internationalization: Changes in Osaka

By Ayu Shigi

I chose to write about Osaka today and in the past. I am from Osaka. In the past, there was not an international market and millions of foreign people, but today there are many stores and a lot of people. Recently, there are many opportunities to see foreign people in Osaka. We can see them especially in the city of Namba. Also many foreign people run their own stores. So we can eat their local foods, and we can make foreign friends easily. Also our college has many foreign teachers and study-abroad students.

There are “wrong English signs that can be seen in several places. It is mixed Japanese and English. It may not be understood if I use it. I want to correct it. For example, "rice of delicious," "brightly and happiness," and "we have only two empty stomach now."
