Janglish


words used by j-panese people that sound/look like english words, but have different (sometimes completely different) meanings. eg. kanin-suru (first part sounds like “cunning”) refers to cheating on a test, but “cunning” in english refers to a general skill for getting what one wants or for deceiving.
