| 词汇 | made in japan english |
| 词源 | made in Japan English. The Japanese have borrowed and al- tered thousands of English words to which they have given new meanings. One example of this is the words image and up, which they have combined into the Japanese word imejiappu and given the meaning “improving one’s image.” The Japanese call constructions like this “made in Japan English,” after the cheap goods or trinkets once commonly sold in U.S. five-and- dime stores. |
