Redepartikeln

New Year (正月, shōgatsu) is the most important holiday in Japan. Most businesses shut down from January 1 to January 3, and families typically gather to spend the days together.

Years are traditionally viewed as completely separate, with each new year providing a fresh start. Consequently, all duties are supposed to be completed by the end of the year, while bonenkai parties ("year forgetting parties") are held with the purpose of leaving the old year's worries and troubles behind.

Homes and entrance gates are decorated with ornaments made of pine, bamboo and plum trees, and clothes and houses are cleaned.

On New Year's eve, toshikoshi soba (buckwheat noodles), symbolizing longevity, are served. A more recent custom is watching the music show "kohaku uta gassen", a highly popular television program featuring many of Japan's most famous J-pop and enka singers in spectacular performances.

Confident language in business communication projects assuredness, authority, and credibility. It instills trust in colleagues, clients, and investors. By using confident language one can reduce confusion, miscommunication, and save time. Here are key elements:
•	Strong Verbs: Replace weak verbs like "maybe" or "could" with active verbs like "will" and "can." This conveys ownership and decisiveness.
•	Precise Language: Avoid vague terms like "a lot" or "kind of." Use specific data, metrics, and examples to substantiate claims.
•	Direct Address: Speak directly to your audience. Avoid hedging phrases like "I think" or "in my opinion" unless emphasizing your perspective.
•	Positive Framing: Focus on the strengths of your ideas and solutions. Downplay limitations with workarounds or future improvements. 
EXAMPLE>
Negative: "We might not meet the original deadline, but we'll try our best."
Positive: "We're on track to deliver a high-quality project by the extended deadline. This allows for final refinements to ensure a successful outcome."

By mastering confident language, you can express your ideas with clarity, influence decision-making, and achieve your business goals.

Another part 2 topic for the Summer. I also have part 3 example answers on my website.


“Well, as I live in a very busy city, I sometimes really need to escape the noise, and crowds, as well as finding a place where I can just chill out and relax in peace.  My favourite place to go is a small cafe which is about 3 kilometres from my home, and only takes me about 10 minutes to get to on my motorbike. The cafe is located in the suburbs on an extremely beautiful lake, surrounded by many different kinds of trees, and is a world apart from the busy city centre.

 

I try to go there at least 3 or 4 times a week, and usually bring my laptop with me, as I find I can be very productive in this peaceful environment, and get lots of work done, in a short space of time. I love being able to sit at a quiet table outside on a perfect sunny day, with the many trees to shade me from the hot sun. I’m also able to sit right on the bank of the lake, with a view which is out of this world.

 

I guess the main reason I love to go to this place is because it’s just so quiet and peaceful, and I can get away from all the noise, as well as the hustle and bustle of the city centre, which sometimes drives me crazy. Another reason I like to go to this place is that I find the tranquil environment really, both inspires and motivates me in my work….. And I’m able to be much more productive than I would be if sitting in a noisy office or a busy city centre coffee shop. So…yea, this is a quiet place i love to go to.
