There are two ways you could say “how do you do?” in Japanese. The first is through the written word and it looks like this:

はじめまして

These letters are impossible for English people to read, however, since they do not even slightly resemble the letters that we read each and every day. For this reason, the Japanese alphabet has, in a sense, been translated.

If you want to say the words to someone else, you will pronounce it like this:

Hajimemashite

This is the Romaji form of the word. Romaji is basically the Romanization of the word and so it is much easier for English individuals to read. This is not translated directly into English, but rather it is more recognisable in what is known as “Roman letters”.
