Which Country have you Picked?

Fill in your answer here. Provide any interesting


details about how this country has influenced
English.

We picked Japan. This country has a long story of


borrowing words from foreign languages. Words are
taken from english for concepts that do not exist in Japan
but also the english terms are used for fashionability.
Kabuki-a traditional form of japanese theatre: also any form of elaborate
theatre, especially metaphorically
Ramen-quick-cooking egg noodles usually served in a broth with bits of
meat and vegetables
Sudoku-a puzzle in which several numbers are to be filled into a 9x9 grid of squares so
that every row, every column, and every 3x3 box contains the numbers 1 through 9
Rickshaw-a small, light vehicle with two wheels that is pulled by 1 person on foot
or on a bicycle
