I bet it's easier to use English in Japan than HK etc...but I haven't been to the latter to compare

Everyone speaks English in Hong Kong, it's one of the official languages.
-
Yes and virtually everyone speaks it in Japan too, it's taught in school
-
Americans learn Spanish in school too, but to little effect. My experience with the Japanese/Koreans makes me think it's a similar situation
-
I'm an American who did not learn Spanish in school; the language saturation isn't very comparable from my experience
-
They didn't make you take it in high school? Well, just take my word for it, you likely wouldn't have learned/retained anything.
-
Right--my point is that Japan is much more English-friendly than the USA is Spanish-friendly
-
Pretty much all signs are bilingual and most people know some English
-
I've had to count on this during past visits!
