In Japan, it is customary to say "Ittekimasu" when leaving the house, which roughly translates to "I'm going, and I'll be back." This phrase reflects the importance of family values and respect for others in Japanese culture. The response to "Ittekimasu" is "Itterasshai," which means "go and come back." Proper etiquette, including saying goodbye before leaving the house and using non-verbal expressions such as bowing, is highly valued in Japan. While globalization has had an impact on Japanese culture, traditional customs such as saying goodbye before leaving the house remain prevalent.
