Many millions of Japanese people live in these conditions (ワンルーム) and consider it to be normal. It’s all a matter of perspective, setting reasonable expectations, and adhering to standards. If everyone acts like these conditions are tantamount to failure, it is failure. If everyone shrugs it off as a fact of modern life, there’s no shame in it.
- ringaroundthetx 9y agoThis is one of those times you should have used romaji
- rabboRubble 9y agoワンルーム = wanruumu = one room
- DoreenMichele 9y agoThank you, all three of you. This little snippet has been such a delight, for so many reasons.
- nihonde 9y agoIf you’re googling, it’s better to use katakana, since ‘one room’ will pull lots of false hits and no one writes ‘wanrumu’. It’s easy enough to translate if you can’t read it.
