stated that the word "hentai" is added onto the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) in
its latest update. DAMN! So congrats to the Japanese! They manage to implant
their culture in a "high-class" English Dictionary. Next time you open up an Oxford
Dictionary, you might bump onto this word:
Pronunciation: /hɛnˈtʌɪ/Another few words, "otaku" & "hikikomori" was planted in Oxford English Dictionary
noun [mass noun]
a sub-genre of the Japanese genres of manga & anime,
characterized by overtly sexualized characters & sexually
explicit images and plots.
Origin:
1990s: Japanese, literally 'abnormal, perverted'
not long ago. The Japanese really conquered the world, not by an army but by
their comics & toons. Long live "hentai!".
