摘要：本文描述了当今日本现存的两种英语。这些是“日本化英语”，基于日本人之间使用的英语借词，以及“日语变体英语”，作为第二语言与外国人交谈。有人认为，这些变体起源于上个世纪日本与西方（特别是美国和英国）之间的三种语言接触：洋泾浜化、借用和正式英语教学。通过研究这种接触情况的独特结果，可以深入了解日本文化的动态和英语作为国际语言的可行性。
ABSTRACT: This paper describes the two kinds of English extant in Japan today. These are ‘Japanized English,’ based on the use of English loanwords spoken by Japanese among themselves, and ‘the Japanese variety of English,’ spoken as a second language with foreigners. It is argued that these varieties have their origins in three lines of linguistic contact between Japan and the West (particularly America and Britain) during the past century: a line of pidginization, a line of borrowing, and a line of formal English instruction. By examining the unique results of this contact situation, insight can be gained on both the dynamics of Japanese culture and the viability of English as an international language.
