[yasumi]

Is killing a fly with chopsticks bad manners?

[TVJapaneseShoGoPie]

Even though I am truely Japanese, this video gave me a few new information about chopsticks! That's nice!!! ばってんばしは初めてて聞きました（笑）

[officialhollytm]

yay, I can use chopsticks now, ありがとう、りさ-さん

[alanakimitsu]

there are also other "chopstick taboos" that are aside from the video and not explained, i will explain some of the taboo things you should not do:
1. sashibashi (刺し箸)--- using chopsticks as knife and fork
we understand sometimes food can be difficult to pick up by using chopsticks, but nevertheless, you should not stab or cut your food with chopsticks even if it is convenient. most importantly, sticking your chopsticks in food is improper.
2. mayoibashi (迷い箸)--- hovering your chopsticks over the food to decide what to eat first
when the whole table of food seems delicious to you, you may need to wonder what to eat first. but however, hovering your chopsticks around the dishes makes others think that you are a greedy person!
3. mogibashi (もぎ箸)--- when the tip of the chopstick gets dirty with food, you lick the tip of the chopstick to get the chopstick clean.
this really makes others to have weird thinking about you. licking the chopstick is kind of gross. so when the chopstick get dirty. it is better to ask the waiter to get you a new pair.
4. tatakibashi (叩き箸)--- using chopsticks as drumsticks to hit the dishes
tapping or hitting dishes with chopsticks is not only annoying but also discourteous to others. your chopsticks are not drumsticks so you should avoid doing this type of behavior.
5. also sashibashi but different (指し箸)--- pointing at others with chopsticks
pointing at others with chopsticks is extremely taboo, it is impolite and sometimes can be considered an insult. it can easily ruin relationship in a business setting. so avoid doing it at any cost.

avoid doing all of this "chopstick taboo", you can be able to have good manners with chopsticks and others won't cost problems to you. if you have these bad manners. stop doing the now! change your behaviors and be the successful yourself!!!

[ReasonsWhy]

Thank god. I'm Chinese and learned how to use them and their table manners when i was a kid.

[ArlekinVergeltungswaffe]

I'm sorry. I really tried with chopsticks, but I'm a complete disaster. Maybe I'm stupid, but I give up. Now give me my fork!!!

[catalin-gabrielradu]

Hi! Can you say me if this phrase is corect? 
お-たんじょうび　おめでとう　ございます　ケンジ　と　 オカサン　と　わたし　わ あなたたち　お　あいして　(Happy Birthday Kenji and Mother and I love you! ) 
I'm still learning Japanese and this is my second phrase, but I can't ask my mother if it's  good .

[honeydane]

[EEchtermeijer]

[vanvaneful]

[jasminefry]
