TV English

Upon first meeting Hideki I was struck by two things: his thick, yet rather unusual, Japanese accent, and his perfect English, which was also tinged with what I quickly discerned was a British accent. When I pointed this out to him, he explained that it was due to his many years spent in England and Canada.


As for the perfect English, he thanked me and said he’d learned it from watching reruns of TV shows like ER;thus his knowledge of medical terminology is rather impressive, as well. This, if nothing else, might please his physician father to some degree.
