2021年，美国人留在日本生活的原因是什么？
Why Do Americans Live In Japan In 2021? | STREET INTERVIEW
译文简介
网友：有趣的是，采访中父亲说他不会离开日本，但儿子不同意。不过这也说得通。父亲在美国长大，自主选择移民到日本，而儿子在日本出生，所以美国对他来说可能更有趣更浪漫。

"you don't know your country until you live in a foreign country" FACTS
“出国以后你才能了解你的国家“这是真的
Yeah, i totally agree with this idea as well.
没错。完全同意
Next video gonna be like :
"Why do americans live in america in 2021?"
下一部视频会是：
“2021年，为什么美国人要在美国生活？“
Cus there’s nowhere else to go
因为没有别的地方可以去
But the channel is about Asian look at the name
但这个频道是关于亚洲的，看看名字
I ask myself the same question everyday maybe one day I'll move elsewhere
每天，我都会问自己这个问题，或许有一天我会搬到别的地方去
Because it's hard to leave
因为很难离开
It's interesting how the Father said he wouldn't leave Japan, but the Son disagreed. It makes sense, though. The Father grew up in America, and he autonomously chose to immigrate to Japan, whereas the Son was just born into it, so America probably seems more interesting and romantic to him.
有趣的是，采访中父亲说他不会离开日本，但儿子不同意。不过这也说得通。父亲在美国长大，自主选择移民到日本，而儿子在日本出生，所以美国对他来说可能更有趣更浪漫。

We always feel like the grass is greener on the other side.
我们总是觉得另一片草地更绿
I know someone like that. I live in Italy now (lived in Japan for 3 years though). I met a woman who moved from the states to italy for love. Her son ended up moving to the US and he wants to stay there.
我认识一个这样的人。我现在住在意大利（之前在日本生活了三年）。我认识一个女人，她为了爱情从美国搬到意大利，她的儿子最后搬到了美国，他想要留在美国生活
It doesn't necessarily mean he thinks one place is better than the other, he just said he would be open to trying it out. Pretty reasonable, and I think there is a lot people with that mindset no matter how much they like their home country.
这并不意味着他认为一个地方就比另一个地方好，他只是说他想要尝试一下。这很合理，我认为有很多人都有这样的想法，不管他们有多爱自己的祖国
"Japan isn't the cure-all for whatever is wrong with you."
I have a few friends who cannot understand that and truly believe Japan is this magical motherland place with happiness around every corner.
“日本不是一个可以治愈一切的地方“
我的几个朋友不明白这一点，他们真的相信日本是一个神奇的地方，每个角落都充满了幸福

last dude offered some great wisdom at the end of the video. no one and no place can "fix" you but yourself, at the end of the day
视频结尾采访的最后一个人的话很有智慧，他说，除了你自己以外，没有一个人，没有一个地方，能够改变你
Not sure about that. New place usually brings new experience, and new experience often gives you a new perspectives or changes the way you perceive things for better. To me, that is “fixing”. Just from my personal experience
我对此并不确定。新的地方会带来新的体验，新的体验往往会给你提供新的视角，或改变你看待事物的方式。对我来说，这就是“修复“。这仅仅是我的个人体验
one of the women mentioned the "glass ceiling" in the U.S. and how in Japan it's more like a "concrete ceiling."
其中一个女性提到了美国的是“玻璃天花板“，而日本更像是”水泥天花板“
Ikr. Not to blame the society, but things like that sometimes make me wish I were born a man. But, men also have to face tremendous social pressures...
不要责怪社会，但有时候我希望自己可以是一个男孩，但男人想要面对巨大的社会压力
yeah, In Japan, women have a strong influence at home. There is still a strong culture of sharing roles within the family.
是的，日本女人在家里有很强的影响力，日本家庭内部有强烈的角色分担文化
@Kiki /ENG JPN CHN Men definitely have to face social pressures :D
男人真的是不得不面对社会压力
Japan is much more patriarchal than america.
与美国相比，日本更像是家长制社会
That man with the son definitely knows what he is talking about.
那个带着儿子的男人肯定知道他在说什么
He’s a local legend. He had a YouTube show called “Tokyo on fire” very informative show.
他是当地的一个传奇人物。他在油管上有个节目叫《东京失火》，非常有教育意义。

@konjotora I know him, I know him!
我知道他
The Chicago guy has one of the strongest Chicago accent's I've ever heard.
那个芝加哥人的口音是我听过最重的
I'm from Chicago and I knew he was from Chicago before he said he was
我是芝加哥人，在他说自己是芝加哥人之前，我就知道他来自哪里了
As a Brazilian myself I felt sad when she said people would follow her at a store and stop her to see if she hasn't stolen a bicycle... I'm not of japanese descent and even here in brazil I've heard about some Brazilians that mess up in japan. I'm sure that the majority of Brazilians in japan won't do any of this. It's shame that a few Brazilians plus prejudice from the Japanese side makes our image look bad in the country...
I lived in japan for 2 years and never really felt prejudice for being brazilian but it could also be because I'm white and they don't expect Brazilians to be white because of the misconception they have about the country.
作为巴西人，当听到她说人们在商店里跟着她，把她拦下，看有没有偷东西的时候，我感到很难过。我不是日本人的后裔，现在在巴西生活，在巴西我听到一些人在日本陷入困境。我肯定大部分在日本的巴西人不会做偷窃的事情。一小部分巴西人增加了日本人对我们的偏见，真是可耻，让我们的形象在日本变差了
我之前在日本生活了两年，从来没有因为是巴西人而受到歧视，但这可能是因为我是白人的缘故，，由于对巴西的一些误解，他们没有想到巴西人会是白人
Don`t mind that comment, that lady was also white, so I don`t think it is because of the skin color the prejudice
不要在意评论，那个女士也是白人，所以我认为这和肤色偏见无关
This is not only in Japan many white people in western countries also discriminate people who are black or muslims.
不仅在日本，西方国家的许多白人也歧视黑人或穆斯林。

Oh wait till you become southeast Asian anywhere we go there's prejudice against us. Japan, Korea, China and even singapore looks down on us Southeast Asian people its really funny cause we southeast Asians don't discriminate within ourselves
等你变成东南亚人，你就会知道无论去哪都存在偏见，日本人，韩国人，中国人，甚至新加坡人都看不起我们，这真的很有趣，但我们东南亚人不会看不起我们自己
@Eido Saji yeah this is nothing compared to what black or asian people go through
这和黑人和亚洲人的经历的歧视相比不算什么
I'm not living in Japan, but I also felt sad about that comment. Whenever I be in another country, dude, I'm gonna be the best example of citizen
我没有住在日本，但我也为这个评论感到难过。无论何时，只要在外国，我一定要成为最好的公民榜样
Asians are racists more than anyone else.
亚洲人比其他人都要种族主义
Honestly, you can never really know. Whether it is asians or non-asians, one thing we can all agree is that, racism is bad.
老实说，你并不真正的了解，不管亚洲人还是非亚洲人，我们所有人一致同意的是，种族主义是不好的行为
Americans move to Japan because they were tried of getting called weird back home. So they now live in Japan, and have Japanese people call them weird. But it's in Japanese, so it's okay
美国人搬到日本，是因为他们不想在家里被人说是怪人，现在搬到了日本，日本人还是称他们为怪人。不过他们是用日语说的，没有关系
As much as I enjoy these videos, I'm wondering why you're always just asking Americans why they live abroad? Why not just ask all foreigners?
虽然我很喜欢这些视频，但我不知道为什么你要一直问美国人旅居国外的原因呢？为什么不问问其他外国人？
just guessing, but maybe Americans make up a huge percentage of their viewership
我猜是因为美国人在他的观众中占据了很大的比例
it's interesting how the two ladies mentioned how living in Japan made them really understand and empathise with those who experience discrimination
有趣的是，那两个女士提到的在日生活经历让她们真正理解并对同样遭受歧视的人产生同情

The father son duo were interesting to me. The son did not hesitate to say he'd be willing to go abroad or even to the States. I'm wondering if a part of this is due to his own upbringing. Perhaps he wasn't surrounded by a lot of foreigners and was treated a certain way.
我觉得父子双人组很有意思。儿子毫不犹豫的表示要到国外，甚至要去美国。我想这是否和他的成长环境有关。或许他的周围没有那么多的外国人，或许别人对待他的方式很特别。
18:54 she's been living in Japan for 10 years and can't read or write in Japanese?
18:54的那个女士在日本生活了十年，但还是不会用日语读写？

@Ben if she were, she would have probably had more time to study Japanese.
如果真是这样的话，那么她应该多花点时间在日语学习上
she does live in Tokyo, so I'd assume she doesn't have too much incentive or too much of a need to learn Japanese anyways
她住在东京，所以我认为她没有那么大的需要去学日语

@Izayah Emerald still thats weird
但还是很奇怪
原创翻译：龙腾网 http://www.ltaaa.cn 转载请注明出处
@Gayson Jiovanni it's not necessarily weird. Like I said, I assume she's living in a spot where there's probably already a lot of english speakers and places so it's easier for her to get by and she doesn't feel the need to learn the language due to that. I'm not saying it's a smart move, but I wouldn't necessarily call it weird because I'm pretty sure quite a few people do that when it comes to such popular destinations like Tokyo.
这并不奇怪。就像我说的，我想她住的地方可能已经有很多说英语的人了，所以生活还是很容易的，她并不觉得有学习日语的需要。我不是说这是明智之举，但我认为这并不奇怪，因为我认为有些人来到东京这样受欢迎的地方就会这样做
That would be torture. At least she should tried to memorize characters.
这简直就是折磨，至少也应该试着记几个单词
Its not uncommon, especially in Tokyo where most things have some English signage, so you can manage. However, if you were living in a rural area or a smaller city, then you're going to run into trouble and the lack of language skill will limit you.
这很常见，尤其是在东京，大部分东西都有英语标牌，所以不会日语也能应付。然而，如果你生活在农村或小城市，那么你就会遇到麻烦，缺乏语言技能会限制住你
I mean, my mom lived in America for 10 years and don’t know english.
我妈妈在美国住了10年还是不懂英语。
I've wanted to live in Japan since I was little girl. My grandma talked about the time she lived in Japan all the time when I was little. Since then I have wanted to live there.
当我还是一个小女孩的时候就想要去日本生活。当我还是一个小孩子的时候，我奶奶会经常告诉我她之前在日本的生活经历。从那以后，我就一直想要去日本生活。
I’m from Tokyo currently living in Aichi, I also was so surprised that there are so many Latin and southeast Asian people here
I see foreigners more than I did back hometown
我来自东京，现在住在爱知，看到那么多的拉美人和东南亚人生活在这里后，我感到很惊讶
我发现这里的外国人比我上次回家时还要多
I moved to Tokyo because I had a feeling the coronavirus would wreck NYC where i lived before. I made a great choice.
我搬到东京，是因为我觉得新冠病毒会毁了我之前在那生活的纽约，我做出了正确的选择
Good choice. I just moved to nyc in January. Lol
不错的选择，一月我刚刚搬到纽约，哈哈
"Is it dangerous in America?" I get the impression he thought this was a bit of a funny question, but obxtively, yes it is.
“在美国危险吗？“我觉得他觉得这个问题有点好笑，但客观的讲，是的，很危险
entirely depends on where you live, but compared to Japan the US is dangerous
完全取决于你住在哪，但于日本相比，美国的确危险
I wouldn't say the US as a whole is dangerous. More dangerous than most 1st world countries maybe, but not dangerous as a whole. Like here in Kansas I feel like it's fine. I can't speak for other states, because I've really never lived anywhere else. Hell, I haven't even stayed out of my state for over 3 weeks.
我认为美国总体上并不危险。或许比大部分第一世界国家危险，但总体来说并不危险。就像这里的堪萨斯州，我觉得就很好。其他州我不敢说，因为我没有去其他地方生活过。见鬼，我甚至没有离开堪萨斯州超过三个星期。
I’d respond with depends on where you live, some neighborhoods are safe others are dangerous, don’t go to Detroit or Cleveland
我的回答是取决于你住在哪里，有些社区安全，有些危险，但不要去底特律或克利夫兰
It depends on where you live. I have lived in US in last 40 years, my family and I haven't seen any dangers!:
取决于你住在哪里，我在美国生活了40年，我的家人和我没有感受到任何危险

我觉得最好的回答来自于视频最后那个人，他很有智慧
