Greetings, Paul! I appreciate your input on my Language ref desk query. I've added a response there, as there may be further discussion. And hey, a personal welcome to Wikipedia editing! -- Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 10:42, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, Paul!

Your userpage says you speak 上級の日本語. Where did you study, if you don't mind me asking? Also, I lived in Aichi for ten years. Which part are you in? I was in Nagoya (Moriyama-ku) and Ichinomiya. Reply on my talk page, if you will.ChokinBako (talk) 00:22, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Good Luck!

Well, thanks for the reply. I wish you all the best in your studies, mate. I saw in an earlier post you made a few weeks/months back that you were looking to work as a pro translator. I have a few contacts in Nagoya if you want to give them a go. For a start, try W5 Staff Services where I worked, near the 名古屋国際センター. Ask for 岩井さん. You will be asked to go for a short interview, but that is just to ascertain your actual ability. Also, if you feel up to it, try applying to the Police International Investigations Unit (where I also worked) for interpreting between the Police and foreign prisoners. This place is in 丸ノ内. I've got more if you are interested in making it a full time job.ChokinBako (talk) 11:01, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
