Oh man, your comment - which is by the way not a comment but a story in itself, made my day.

You're right about almost everything you wrote in your 'article-comment'.

I loved your Japanese references of Gaijin and Hafu. You're only the second person to get that 'hurting' bit. I was hurting because first of all I never intended any harm, and it was out of love, I wrote a comment in the other person's tongue (which I knew for sure was there tongue because I've been to that country multiple times, and almost lived there). But maybe it was their sensitivity or even insecurity which I touched, but anyhoo that's in the past - no dramas.

About writing other scripts - I recommend you install that language keyboard on your machine. Mac, Windows, whatever - there are keyboards / languages you can install in your machine. It will help you write other language script. I do that. Another way is to find online keyboard for the other language, and then copy paste that into your medium story.

Lastly, if you can write more than one language, which I can safely guess that you do, please come write for us at Polyglot Poetry!

Cheers mate
