Any Japanese speakers out there ? I just sold my first print to Japan and there is a note from the buyer in Japanese... I tried Google translate but I would love to be able to double-check !

Don't be afraid to ask the buyer for a translation of the note.
Most Japanese speak English as well.

It does seem strange that Etsy will not ask for or provide a translation though. I also have japanese keywords hits that are untranslated.

No, Etsy doesn't provide a translation service simply because that's not their field of business.
Translating correctly from one language to another takes someone who is fairly fluent in both languages.

You also might try google translate. I used that to translate a French note one time. Worked good for me.
Good luck and congratz on your sale :-)
