Haha, good question! Google Translate can definitely lead to some embarrassing moments. Some common mistakes include incorrect grammar, awkward phrasing, and literal translations that don't make sense in context. It's always best to double-check with a native speaker or language tutor when using translation tools. And as for useful phrases in Japanese, here are a few:

- こんにちは (Konnichiwa) - Hello
- ありがとう (Arigatou) - Thank you
- すみません (Sumimasen) - Excuse me/I'm sorry
- お願いします (Onegaishimasu) - Please
- どういたしまして (Douitashimashite) - You're welcome

Hope these come in handy! 🇯🇵🎌
