	The Mikan Chronicles: Gaijin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		'Gaikokujin' means 'person from a foreign country', so it's perfectly true, and doesn't bother me too much, although 'gaijin' carries a sense of 'outsider', and is guaranteed to draw my ire.
		However, the fact remains that in lumping all non-Japanese into a group and assigning them a name- be it 'gaijin', 'gaikokujin', or whatever- the Japanese run the risk of themselves being seen as one group- a group of racists.
		To me, the difference between "gaikokujin" and "gaijin" is the difference between the way "negro" and "nigger" was used in 1950s America.

	JPRI Working Paper No. 24
		In Planning for the employment of gaikokujin kyoshi each university, to make the most effective use of the budget, should seek wherever possible to hire younger persons when there are several qualified candidates possessing the required professional knowledge and technical skills.
		Moreover, in planning for gaikokujin kyoshi currently employed, contracts should not be based on a simplistic criterion of age but on a comprehensive evaluation including achievements in teaching and research and other individual circumstances.
		Moreover, upon hiring new gaikokujin kyoshi it is necessary to make special efforts to explain the contents of the contracts the first time one is signed, and to clearly inform them of the total period of time for which the university plans to employ them, so that there is no misunderstanding by either party.

		Andrew Grant: I have seen Japanese-English dictionaries / phrasebooks where "gaijin" is translated as "foreigner" without comment and "gaikokujin" is either not given at all or just given as an alternative with no implication that this is to be preferred.

		Anyway, just as i was falling asleep (which normally happens to me in church) all the women in the church got up, went to the front of the church and started singing.
		This is just a short thought but I was using Gmail today and it occurred to me (as I was tagging some emails) that it would be a hell of alot easier if I could select multiple tags from the pull down menu all at once.
		But what bothers me even more (if thats possible) is that these funds helped create a republican majority (not to mention what Delay has been doing in his Texas redistricting scam) maybe we should hold elections, now, for all the Abramoff recipients and see who gets voted for.

	Gaijin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		While all forms of the word mean "foreigner", in practice gaikokujin and gaijin are mainly used to refer to non-East Asians, people from China Chūgokujin (中国人, "Chinese person") or Korea Kankokujin (韓国人, "South Korean person") are usually referred to by their country of origin.
		Similar practice can be seen in most countries where the closer the ethnicity (such as Irish in Britain), the more likely it is to use country specific-reference than to use an all-encompassing expression for non-natives.
		Now that gaijin has become somewhat politically incorrect, it is common to refer to non-East Asian non-Japanese as gaikokujin while more culturally similar Taiwanese, Chinese, and South and North Koreans are referred to as Taiwanjin, Chugokujin, and Kankokujin and (Kita) Chosenjin, respectively.

	The Language Teacher Online: Glick, August 2002
		gaikokujin kyoushi: literally a "foreigner teacher" but often translated as a "visiting lecturer," a full-time position for a foreign national who is not treated as a Japanese national
		gaikokujin kyouin: a full-time position held by a foreigner who is treated as a Japanese national, which means Japanese ability is usually required and position will likely be tied to age
		This article will focus on gaikokujin kyoushi positions, since these are positions created specifically for foreigners and are probably far more common than gaikokujin kyouin positions; these two terms for positions may be used differently at private institutions.

		I went to my mum's friend's house for osechi ryouri and her husband kept referring to me as Gaikokujin.
		You should have replied, (in Japanese), "No I am a gaikokujin so all Japanese wine and food is poison to me. If I attempt to eat it, I will get sick and die.
		And referring to someone right in front of them as "gaikokujin" instead of by name is just rude.

	JPRI Working Paper No. 58
		Much of the distinction in employment is reflected by the very word "foreign" in the job titles held by non-nationals--gaikokujin kyouin and gaikokujin kyoushi.
		This is not unique to the Prefectural University of Kumamoto; it is a problem plaguing the majority of universities in Japan.1 They have constructed a Byzantine edifice of regulations, laws, and practices, and of linguistic shape-shifting, to restrict access to foreign scholars.
		Nonetheless, in October 1998, at a meeting with the PUK president, he stated in answer to a question about how the teachers were submitted to the Ministry during the accreditation process that the teachers employed in the part-time irregular status were probably submitted as something like gaikokujin kyoushi but certainly not as sennin koushi.

		In the U.S., on can become a citizen simply by being born in the country; since in Japan one cannot acquire citizenship that way, the Koreans stay "gaikokujin" legally as well, and so they must carry the cards with them all the time.
