Question
I’m planning to buy souvenirs for my friends and family back home. I want to know which Japanese snacks are popular when choosing souvenirs. How do I ask “What are some popular Japanese snacks for souvenirs?” in Japanese?

What are some popular Japanese snacks for souvenirs?
When in Japan, snacks are often chosen as gifts or souvenirs, known as “omiyage”. In this sentence, omiyage means “souvenir”; ninki no aru means “popular”; nihon no refers to something of Japanese origin; sunakku means “snack”; and nan means “what”.
Use this phrase to ask locals or shop staff for popular snack recommendations. You can simply replace “sunakku” with other items you’re interested in, for example, “okashi” (sweets) or “keki” (cake).
