Answer 1 :
depends wut u type in like in portugal (where my uncle lives) if you type something in on google it comes up with english results if u type down an english phrase but offers to translate it into portugese which means that u wil be fine as long as u remember how to write english =]
Answer 2 :
You won't need a translator. As long as the sites you currently visit are in English, they will be that way in Japan as well. Many sites have different domain name so instead of .com, in Japan, it's .jp. I know when I was in Europe at internet cafes, Yahoo for example would come up in that country's language, but I would just erase it out of the address bar and type in whatever I wanted and I had English sites...however, the keyboard was in their language and it's probably that way in Japan too, but if you are using your own computer, you should be fine.
Answer 3 :
no its in english. just remember to put .com not .co.jp
Answer 4 :
Japan doesn't have a filter that makes everything show up in Japanese,even sites that normally aren't in Japanese. While you might wind up with a temporary home page in Japanese (e.g. maybe your go to Google.jp instead of Google.com because you're on a Japanese server/ISP/whatever determines these things) every other website you go to should be in whatever language it's always in.
Answer 5 :
It will be the same as it is here.If you type in 'yahoo.com', it will be in English
