This is because language is a living thing, an everchanging system of words and meanings that mirrors the society that it describes and defines. This is the background to the writing of Japanese Business Language. Having recognized the persistent difficulties foreign executives in Japan have in understanding Japanese business practices and being equally well aware of the difficulties Japanese executives abroad experience in trying to explain their ways to foreigners, the Mitsubishi Corporation compiled a reference work of key Japanese business terms rendered and explained in English, for the use of its own clients and executives.
