response: It apparently has a lot of loan words from English, as well.
original_response: Is it very difficult to learn as a second language?
history: I started learning Japanese a couple of years ago There does not seem to be a lot of history on Japanese language or even a date it first appeared. I know I homeschooled my daughter and she was very interested, we learned to speak some together
knowledge: English loanwords, in particular, have become frequent, and Japanese words from English roots have proliferated.
