Engrish

Engrish is a form of English used from quite a few Japanese people learning English. Usually those people only learn it if they're friends with a foreigner or they are not trying that hard at English.

Engrish is slurred and they try to use R's for the sounds not in their language. (I.E. A few letters in the Alphabet arent in the Japanese Alphabet, like X and V). It sounds hilarious and they seem quite good to other Japanese, but to americans its HILARIOUS!

Those people are definately NOT trying hard to learn English, therefore it was named Engrish, for the Japanese people who suck at English.

Alot of times its in Japanese college because of the whole foreign student issue, people try to learn english ASAP to interact and speak with the foreigner for many reasons.

Lets say, foreigner was speaking to classmate, who met his enemy! Foreigner is Adam, Classmate is Shinobu, and Enemy is Mayagi Here is their Engrish example from an anime that I found (dunno the names surry):

Shinobu is walking down and his friend Adam sees him, before Mayagi sees him in his car.
Mayagi: Oi, Shinobu! *gets out of car*
Adam: Hey, Shinobu! *runs from behind* Did you see Panda vs. Higi Panda on TV last night?
Shinobu: *doesnt realise mayagi is there* Neah! I wuz roaring on ze fror raffing!
Mayagi: Dude! Who's that *points at Adam, shocking Shinobu from his appearance*
Adam: Who's that?
Shinobu: You zont have to know. Get rin my rouse.
Adam: *walks away with shinobu* ah.
Mayagi: *grabs shinobu*
Shinobu: Mayagi?
Adam: Huh?
Mayagi: Not ro worry. He rill be rif me for rile.
Adam: Hey! *watches as Shinobu and Mayagi drive off, abandoning him*

thats the best example I could think of from an anime.

engrish

Mispronounced or mis-translated English words which are included in Japanese songs, signs etc. They sound so funny ;)

And the reverse goes for the word Japperese

Gackt's funnyness:

In Engrish: "Siwent naight, howly naight, shehpar krake ah da side"

In English: "Silent night, holy night, shepherds quake at the sight"


And Miyavi's song words:

"How simple eat in get? Don't you?"

English country boy

A boy whos in love with nature. He is usually into hunting, fishing, shooting and farming are the most common. He's normally quite tall and muscular and he stands up for what he believes in. Also he is most definately an animal lover but can sometimes smell a bit to much like them! He is normally quite humble

English Bus

When a person, generally female, has two penises inserted into her at the same time, in the same orifice.

This term derives from the well known English mode of transportation: the double-decker bus. Best said in a slight English accent - "The Double-dicker".

"Me and my mate, Johnny, last night, we had this loose chick and we gave her the ol' English bus."

English entitlement

The ignorant belief that all things around you should be in English so you understand them no matter where on earth you are.

To refuse to watch foreign movies, play foreign games or listen to foreign music if they are not dubbed in English, even if they have English subtitles

That guy reeks of English entitlement, he wouldn't even say thank you in the local tongue.
People who expect everything to be dubbed are just English entitled idiots.

summer English homework

The epitome of uselessness in which English teachers are pressured by their social studies, science or math counterparts to hand out some form of quantified work over the summer, usually in the form of drawing, or as they put it, "visual response." It typically does not require reading the actual book but spending a few minutes glancing over Sparknotes or Shmoop may turn out to work to the student's benefit. Despite the uselessness and the lack of effort that it requires (or generates from students, for that matter), English teachers tend to grade rather harshly and criticize a student's artistic capabilities to send the message to future students that summer English homework should emulate the quality of works by Monet, Gogh, or da Vinci.

I usually put off my summer English homework to the last day because it takes less than an hour to finish it.
