Dragon Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 So I've started trying to learn Japanese again. To help me in this endeavour, I've decided to get a Japanese language children's book. They should be written in simple Japanese, and my ability to read it should be a rough indicator of how well I know Japanese. I had no luck trying to find one on Amazon with the terms "Japanese children's book", so I tried something creative. I took the Japanese term '本の子' (honnoko, children's book) and put it into Amazon.co.uk. I shit you not, this was the first result: edit: possibly NSFW So, what, do they think Japanese people looking for books with children in them must be looking for this? What is going on?

Guest KY Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 am i wrong in thinking your japanese characters reverted to some random character in the amazon search? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaini Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 you don't have the right unicode charset installed, so your search ended up with a bunch of weeaboo otakus who were after pictures of japanese schoolgirls but also didn't have the right unicode charset installed? edit: and about half of them were coders or web designers or something.
