Is smoking allowed?


Could I wave a pack of smokes and ask "daijoubu?" to see if I'm allowed to
smoke?




**Hello Malu, i assumed that you're a foreigner office worker, who traveled to
Japan to work for the 1st time. In case you wanted to ask permission from
others to smoke, you can say these sentences (depends on context/ situations
you're in)**

**1/Sumimasen, kokode tabaco wo sutte moiidesuka ? ( "Excuse me, can i smoke
here ?" )**

This is the polite version, when you're speaking with your boss or a stranger
you met for the 1st time.

**2/Kokode sutte moii ? ( "Can i smoke here? ")**

Short and casual version, if you wanted to speak with a JP friend/ colleague
at your working place.

**Hope my answer will help you have motivation to learn Japanese and having
fun while working/ living in Japan.**
