Gaijin or.......


"ages ago"? Not so long ago.

That attitude is a cop-out excuse for violence, criminality, and racism (not to mention utter lunacy).
 
So if......."Gaijin" describes a foreigner or "non-japanese",

What's a Japanese-American born in the states who hardly knows a word of Japanese but intends to move to Japan? Still considered "Gaijin" or just foreigner?

Gaijin and foreigner are the same. And according to a post on some other forum, even if you're nikkeijin, you're a foreigner hence gaijin. But you're expected to know some of the customs, so have to show more restraint than other foreigners.
