Gaikokujin

Gaijin (^?, [ɡaid͡ʑiɴ]) ("outside person") is a Japanese word for foreigners and non-Japanese. The word is composed of two kanji: gai (外^?, "outside") and jin (人^?, "person"). Similarly composed words that refer to foreign things include gaikoku (外国^?, "foreign country") and gaisha (外車^?, "foreign car"). The word can refer to nationality, race, or ethnicity, concepts generally conflated in Japan.

Some feel the word has come to have a negative or pejorative connotation, while other observers maintain it is neutral or even positive.Gaikokujin (, "foreign-country person"^?) is a more neutral and somewhat more formal term widely used in the Japanese government and in media.
