    Japanese language is not western language.

    we don't have definite article

    for the same reason, European languages don't have like japanese "desu" or korean "nida" words.

    Japanese pupil is what you're looking to say? Nihonjin is a Japanese character. Gakusei is pupil. No makes a noun an adjective. So, sure, it's right. In kanji, it is ?????. Good good fortune together with your reports.
