『日本誌』及び『オックスフォード英語辞典』の双方に現れる日本語

Abstract

In my earlier paper of 2010, published in the book the Future of English Studies, I have mentioned of 74 words of Japanese origin that could be found in both the History of Japan and the Oxford English Dictionary. However, it was not possible to list those words in that paper due to spatial limitations. Thus, I will here publish the list, together with some explanations for each of the Japanese loanwords. After briefly reviewing the two sources so that readers who are not familiar with these sources will be able to know what they are, the list of the 74 words will be given in alphabetical order.
