@Dogen Did you at some point already cover the use (or lack of use) of the glottal stop in Japanese? Background: Coming from German, where a glottal stop is mandatory for any word that starts with a vowel, I wonder if there is anything I need to be aware of for Japanese.

I've watched the lesson and still have a question - my concern is with the glottal stop at the start of words. In German, all vowel words start with a glottal stop. For example, "offen" (open) actually is rendered as [ʔɔffən], not [ɔffən]. Does this happen in Japanese?
