Download or read book A Dictionary of Japanese Loanwords written by Toshie M. Evans and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1997-05-28 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent studies report that Japanese is the second most productive source of new loanwords to English. Such studies indicate that English-speaking countries are paying more attention to Japan than ever before. This dictionary lists and defines hundreds of terms borrowed from Japanese that are now used in English-language publications. Entries provide variant spellings, pronunciation, etymological information, definitions, and illustrative quotations. These quotations were collected from books, newspapers, magazines, novels, texts, advertisements, and databases published or distributed in the United States between 1964 and 1995. When countries engage in a significant amount of commercial or cultural contact, they frequently borrow words from each other's language. These loanwords are assimilated to varying degrees and show how one country gains exposure to another country's culture. Recent studies report that Japanese is the second most productive source of new loanwords to English, showing that English-speaking countries are paying more attention to Japan than ever before. This dictionary includes entries for hundreds of Japanese terms now used in English-language publications. Included are terms from art and architecture, medicine and the sciences, business and education, philosophy and religion, and numerous other fields. Entries provide definitions, pronunciations, variant spellings, etymological histories, and illustrative quotations. These quotations were collected from books, newspapers, magazines, novels, texts, advertisements, and databases, all of which were published or distributed in the United States between 1964 and 1995. While the volume is a valuable guide to the meaning and assimilation of particular loanwords, it is also a fascinating chronicle of how certain elements of Japanese culture have strongly influenced American civilization.

Download or read book The Emergence of the Modern Sino Japanese Lexicon written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-02-04 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has long been known that the modern Chinese language inherited numerous terms from Japanese and that Japanese coined many of those terms in the last decades of the 19th century. These seven essays address the actual processes by which a discreet number of terms came into being, how they outdistanced competitors, and the persons and texts involved in the process. Rather than relying on received tropes of translation heritage, these essays delve much deeper into the particularities of their cases. They set a standard for subsequent scholarship.

Download or read book Handbook of English Japanese Etymology written by William Imbrie and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-05-27 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excerpt from the Preface: Recent English Grammarians are coming to drop Orthography and Prosody as properly belonging elsewhere, and to treat Grammar as divided into Etymology and Syntax. It is in this sense that the term is employed in the present work: Etymology, the fellow of Syntax; Grammatical Etymology, not Historical. As at first written, the book consisted entirely of classified sentences, prepared by the writer to serve him in rendering English into Japanese, and without a thought of their ever leaving his own table; when, however, it was decided to publish them in the hope that they might prove helpful to others in their earlier studies, it appeared likely that the usefulness of the book would be increased by a change in its form. Accordingly, an outline of Etymology was sketched out, and as many of the sentences as seemed desirable inserted, in illustration of important words ranged under their respective Parts of Speech. This statement will explain the presence of so large a number of examples; it is hoped also that it may afford a sufficient reason for certain blemishes in classification. The work being written from the English side, and with the design of helping the student to render ideas as they lie in an English mind, the author was able to find no title which better expressed his intention and method than the one adopted. Transliteration is still a vexed question, no one of the systems yet proposed commanding universal acquiescence. Those desiring to consult the literature of the subject are referred to the Introduction to Hepburn's Dictionary, Aston's Grammar of the Written Language, a monograph by Mr. Bramsen, and to papers read before the Asiatic Society of Japan by Messrs. Satow and Dickens. After careful consideration, it was decided to adhere to Hepburn's system, merely changing chiu to chu for consistency's sake. Not to speak of its intrinsic merits, it is the system of the only Japanese-English Dictionary in the language; it is followed in the transliterated edition of the New Testament just published; and it has transpired that it would accord with the views of members of the Asiatic Society especially qualified to pronounce on the subject, if it should be adopted in the Transactions of the Society wherever a phonetic system is employed.
