How to Say ‘I’m Shy, I Get Nervous in New Situations’ in Japanese

Written by Krisada Hemsoe in How to prepare JLPT

When you want to express that you are shy and get nervous in new situations in Japanese, you can use the following phrase:

  • 「恥ずかしがりやで、新しい状況では緊張します。」 (Hazukashigariya de, atarashii joukyou de wa kinchou shimasu.)

Here’s a breakdown of the phrase:

  • 恥ずかしがりやで (Hazukashigariya de) means “I am shy” or “I am a shy person.”
  • 新しい状況では (Atarashii joukyou de wa) means “in new situations.”
  • 緊張します (Kinchou shimasu) means “I get nervous” or “I become anxious.”

This phrase effectively conveys your shyness and nervousness when faced with new or unfamiliar situations.
