Characteristics and Implications of "Easy Japanese" Language Service System in Japan——A Case Study Based on the Government Website of 23 Districts of Tokyo
Based on the government websites in 23 districts of Tokyo, this paper tries to investigate "Easy Japanese" language service system. Some advantages are found, such as "the leading role of language service provider", "comprehensive, diversified and intelligent language service". It is also found that the front-line personnel need further education; the automatic translation is not satisfied; and some logos need to be well designed. Therefore, some suggestions for the development of "Easy Chinese" in China are put forward: language service providers should make use of policy support and forge social consensus; it is necessary to promote language service research and development; more communication channels should be built.
