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.
