How do you introduce yourself in Japanese?

Answer:

If you’re meeting someone for the first time, it’s common to use the phrase:

はじめまして (hajimemashite)

This roughly translates to “nice to meet you.”

One simple way to introduce yourself would be to say:

私の名前は______です。
watashi no namae wa ________ desu.
“My name is _________.”

Just say your name in the blank.
