有报道称,如今,在日旅游遇到语言障碍的外国游客,可以通过24小时多语言电话翻译服务获得帮助了。
Local authorities have started offering the translation services after a boom in foreign visitors, many of whom have little knowledge of Japanese, The Japan Times website reports. In some areas the hotlines are accessed by staff in hotels, car rental companies or restaurants to decipher tourists' queries, but others enable visitors to contact a call centre directly.
据《日本时报》网站(Japan Times website)报道:随着赴日旅游的外国游客人数的激增,日本地方政府开始为他们提供翻译服务,因为大部分游客对日语一窍不通。在某些地区,酒店、汽车租赁公司或饭店员工接听翻译热线,负责解答游客的问题。但在其他地区,游客还是直接与热线中心联络。
The number of international visitors arriving in Japan has soared in recent months. In August, an estimated 1.82 million foreign tourists entered the country, a 64% increase on the previous year, according to figures from the Japan National Tourism Organisation.
