When New Year\u2019s greeting card time comes around\uff0c Japanese students always ask me how to say \u201ckotoshi mo dozo yoroshiku\u201d in English. They are surprised when l tell them that you simply don\u2019t say that in English because it would make a very bad impression. Since \u201cdozo yoroshiku\u201d is one of the most frequently used polite expressions in Japanese, they naturally find it hard to believe that it could sound bad in English. How could so obviously polite an expression be misunderstood?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In Japan, you must politely emphasize the other person\u2019s superiority and power, and your own corresponding inferiority and weakness. Thus it is polite to imply that you will always need the other person\u2019s help. \u201cdozo yoroshiku\u201d asks for help, not only for a specific problem, but as a general condition. The Japanese polite fiction is that \u201cl depend on you\u2019 not just in certain situations, but all the time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But in America, you must politely assume, not the other person’s superiority or your own inferiority, but mutual equality. And so the necessary corollary is, not that you are helpless, but that you are self-reliant. The American polite fiction is that \u201cyou and l are independent.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This means that while l may need your help in a specific situation, as a general rule l can manage on my own. Therefore, to be polite, I must imply that I can stand on my own two feet. To express an attitude of general dependence on the other person would sound weak and irresponsible, as if l were unwilling to do my share.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Of course, in real life, Americans depend on their friends and relatives. But this mutual dependence is unspoken; it literally goes without saying. To put it into words makes it sound like an extraordinary request. So on New Years cards, it is customary to say \u201cBest wishes\u201d or \u201cGood luck\u201d\uff0c but never \u201cPlease continue to help me.\u201d<\/p>\n
