Miyako: Wow! She speaks really good English!
John: So do you.
Miyako: But she speaks it better than me. She speaks it much better than me.
John: I don’t think so. I think your English is just as good as hers.
Miyako: You’re just being nice.
John: I am not. Your English is great. In fact everybody in Japan speaks great English. People say they speak bad English but it’s not true. People speak great English in this country. I can’t learn any Japanese because everybody speaks such good English and everybody wants to practise their English all the time.
