Language Contact in Japan: A Sociolinguistic History - Oxford Studies in Language Contact
Loveday, Leo J. (Professor of Linguistics, Professor of Linguistics, Doshisha University, Japan)
If the Japanese are exclusive, why do they take so much from English into their language today? Is there a way to understand language contact that is valid across time and space? By examining the 2000-year history of how the Japanese have been influenced by other language groups, Loveday offers general insights into the social causes and patterns of language contact and change.
