Research Abstract |
This study aims to analyze the sales conversation in German and Japanese on the basis of an observation survey. This empirical study considers not only linguistic expressions that were used in the actual interactions, but also opinions of the native speakers (research assistants) and their comments on the observed interaction. The result revealed the Germans regard a long conversation with personal advices as polite, while the Japanese prefer a more concise usinesslike conversation.
