AUTHOR

Akira Miura

SUMMARY

A continuation of the author¹s book, ³English Loanwords in Japanese: A Selection² (1979). But this volume has more emphasis on the differences between English loanwords in Japanese and the original English words. Also deals with many more pseudo-loans, i.e. made-in-Japan ³English² words. The book also offers sample sentences that include loanwords. Only loanwords of English origin are discussed. Words derived from French and German, for example, were excluded except for a few hybrids, i.e. compound words that are half English and half French or German. The Japanese have borrowed English words or created new pseudo-loans with tremendous vigor.Akira Miura is the author of 'English" in Japanese' with ISBN 9780756750411 and ISBN 0756750415.
