Aregato is pretty much all I know. My ex-husband was third generation. I met his grandma who had immigrated and she only spoke Japanese. But she was already almost 100 when I met him. His parents spoke it but never with their kids. His mom had been in camp here in the US during the war when all the Japanese on the west coast got put in a prison camp.
