Can we please call Ichiro Suzuki by his last name? Like we do for every other visiting player?

 

In Japanese, the family name comes first. Ichiro is what we say is his "last name" and Ichiro Suzuki is like Smith Joe. Suzuki Ichiro would be like Joe Smith.

That is true for several Asian cultures, but I don't think so for Japan.

Let me guess: "Our software is a turnkey solution" with "seamless integration" for "efficient management of company resources."

I once wrote a Unix script to construct corporate mission statements solely with phrases like these. :)

Actually, I don't think that's the case. It's done that way in China and Korea but not Japan.

Apologies for temporarily locking the thread. Trying to operate from a mobile device. How long will the Dean experiment last? Very reminiscent of Andrew Albers.

Google Japanese naming conventions. Surname comes first.

Is Nunez juicing?

 

 

Yup.   And it tastes a lot like raspberry juice,   if raspberry juice were made from freshly squeezed awful.
