Is it normal for me to chat japanese to my japanese friend?

I just have this weird thought in my mind. I dunno why, maybe it's because of anime. Me and him chat not too often, he's currently in Japan enjoying his vacation and I thought I'd greet him with "Onii-chan" at the start of my sentences online not too frequently.

By the way, he understands English as well.

    If you're dithering that much about it are you sure you only see him as a friend?

      I think of it as some kind of "desire" or something similar. He might say "Okay that's weird lol".

    Japanese people love it when you show interest in their language and culture.

    They are more than ok to speak English with you, but if you know a bit of Japanese and talk to them, they'll love it.
    Even if you did learn it from anime XD

    The only Japanese I know is konichiwa, gaijin and dorifuto. Hello, insult for foreigner and drift XD

    Tho I'd love to visit Japan some day. It's a wonderful country with a long history and interesting culture and very loyal and hard working people. I can not say a single bad thing about the Japanese.

      Also, you might know arigato. Of course other words I learnt are Ora ora, yare yare, subarashii and a few more.

      I guess that's true. I chuckle everytime someone foreign tries to speak our native language here.

    its scary if you do that, if you make a mistake while talking in a jap voice/language to them and your white they will karate kick you in the head!

    or they might call the police on you~!

    • That's a bit harsh. Plus, he's OP's friend, he'll correct OP if said anything wrong.
