<my summary>
１）There is no "l" sound in Japanese so that all foreign words with　"l" are pronounced with an "r." "Flight" becomes "fright," or　more exactly, "furaito." A further pronunciation problem is that　Japanese syllables all end in vowel sounds, except when there is　an "n." "Book" becomes "bukku," "size" becomes "saizu," "pencil"　becomes "penshiru."
２）The next step is essential for Japanese: abbreviation, like nega, regi.
３）Japanese Einglish「"dokutu-sutoppu" ("doctor-stop"), an example of what I would　consider brilliant new English.」
４）「The penultimate stage comes when people are no longer aware that　the word is not native. "Pan" ("bread") is from 16th- or 17th-century Portuguese. But it is so deeply rooted in Japanese that　we now find the baffling compound "bureddo-pan" ("bread-pan").」
５）「In the final stage, the foreign word is completely assimilated　to the grammatical form of Japanese.」"saboru." "makuru"　(to eat at McDonald's), "saburu" (to eat while riding a subway　car -- from "sabuuei," "subway").

Conclusion; 「the　process of English-absorption that is going on before our eyes　in Japan today is awesomely inventive.」.
I am very glad to read above paper, which is positive for Japanese English.

Although English is becoming the dominant language around the　world, few outside Japan may be aware of how extensively it has　transformed Japanese. Herbert Passin, professor emeritus of　sociology at Columbia University, reported on this upheaval in　"Japonica: How to Read the Japanese Language if You Know the　English Source Code," which appeared in the spring-summer issue　of Correspondence: An International Review of Culture and　Society.
