　　I don’t feel bad or angry at all. I just said, “I am Japanese”.

　　我并不覺得糟糕或者生氣。我只是會解釋說：“我是日本人。”

　　I know that they can’t recognise which one is Japanese or Chinese.

　　我知道他們沒辦法區(qū)分哪個是中國人哪個是日本人。

　　We are all similar faces. I think they feel Asian is all same. I can’t recognise which one is American or English either.

　　我們擁有相同的臉，我覺得他們認(rèn)為亞洲人長得都一樣，就像我也沒辦法區(qū)分美國人和英國人一樣。

　　I would actually be impressed if a Westerner recognizes me as Japanese.

　　如果西方人能認(rèn)出我是日本人我才會很驚訝。

　　I mean, even I sometimes can’t tell the Asians apart.

　　因為即使是我，有時候也沒辦法區(qū)分亞洲人。

　　It’s a reasonable assumption since what, almost 90% of the East Asian population is Chinese.

　　這是非常合理的一條假設(shè)，因為，中國人口占據(jù)了東亞人口的90%。

　　I usually politely correct them, teach them the Japanese greetings (Konnichiwa), and walk away to get on with my life.

　　我通常會禮貌地糾正他們并且教他們?nèi)毡救说膯柡蚍绞?，然后走開繼續(xù)過我的生活。

　　P.S. In reverse, I will also confess that despite living in Germany for the past two years, I have never been able to tell Italians and Germans apart.

　　備注：反過來，即使我在德國生活了兩年，我也沒辦法區(qū)分意大利人和德國人。

　　My wife either ignores it, or politely corrects them, depending on context.

　　我的妻子要嘛忽視它要嘛禮貌地糾正他們，完全取決于當(dāng)時的語境。
