概要 Cross-linguistic similarities found between any two languages can have positive pedagogical implications for all participants in the language learning process. This article reports on a small-scale investigation into the quantity of English words existing in the Japanese lexicon through a study of English loanword occurrences in a week of Japanese-language newspaper articles. The results show that there is clear evidence of an integrated English sub-lexicon in the Japanese language, which can be conceptualised as a useful linguistic resource for Japanese learners of English.
