外國人去日本，有哪些事情不應該做？
Answer from Wendy Dinsmore, 9 years living and working in and around Tokyo:
來自旅居東京9年的Wendy Dinsmore的回答：
1. First and foremost: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BRING ILLEGAL DRUGS INTO JAPAN.
首先的首先，絕對不要試圖把違禁藥品帶入日本。
Punishment can mean deportation or jail time, and they’re not kidding. Just don’t do it.
你會因此受罰，可能被驅逐出境，也可能坐牢，而且他們是人真的。絕對不要做。
This also applies to some cold remedies, so check before you bring any kind of medication.
有些感冒藥也在管制之列，所以，在你帶任何藥品入境之前都要做好功課。
2. Don’t wear shoes in private homes and some offices.
在別人家中不要穿鞋，在一些辦公室也不能。
If you walk into a building and see a raised area and a lot of shoes near the entryway, that’s a signal for you to take your shoes off before you step up and into the building.
當你走進一棟建築後，如果看到某處的地面被擡高了，而且入口處擺滿了鞋子，這就意味着你需要拖鞋才能進入這個區域。
3. Don’t wear slippers in rooms with tatami floors.
在鋪了榻榻米的地板上不要穿拖鞋。
The bottoms of the slippers are hard on the straw.
拖鞋的底部對榻榻米來說太硬了。
4. Don’t stroll and eat in public.
不要在公共場合邊走邊吃。
Unless it’s a venue (like a festival) that offers a lot of roadside stands and you see others doing it.
除非你是在過那種街邊有很多小吃攤的節，而且旁邊的人都在邊走邊吃。
5. Don’t be loud and disruptive on the train.
在火車上不要大聲喧譁，也不要干擾別人。
Loud music over headphones, cell phone conversations, and loud conversations with your friends are considered bad manners.
耳機裏漏出大音量音樂、講電話、和朋友大聲談話，都被認爲是無禮的行爲。
6. When bathing at an onsen, public bath house or ryokan, don’t enter the communal tub without washing yourself with soap and water first.
在溫泉、公共浴室和旅館澡堂泡澡的時候，在進入公共浴缸之前一定要先用水和肥皂把自己洗乾淨。
You’re sharing that tub with other people.
因爲你是在和別人共用那個浴缸。
7. When handling cash, the cashier will hand you a little tray for you to put your money on, and will return your change the same way.
用現金付賬的時候，收銀員會用一個小托盤來裝你的現金，找零錢的時候也會用同樣的方法。
Don’t hand the cashier your money directly.
千萬不要直接把現金遞給收銀員。
8. Above all, just don’t be a jerk.
最重要的是，絕對不要當個混蛋。
A respectful attitude and willingness to learn will take you a long way.
尊重別人，虛心學習，這會讓你走得長遠。
