Can English speakers guess what Japanese words mean?

Origin Entry:

Notes

Some Japanese words are borrowed from the English language, but can English speakers guess what they mean?


Description

We took to the streets of London to quiz English speakers on Japanese words that sound similar to their English counterparts. Just like the English language has borrowed words from Japanese, like karaoke or sushi, modern Japanese uses a fair amount of vocabulary borrowed from English. These words are called gairaigo.
