Japan?

[edit]

Why does one definition have the tag ”in Japan” when English isn’t spoken there? What does it refer to? --Lundgren8 (t · c) 23:32, 8 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

It could be related to w:Mitsuya Cider. English words in Japan may acquire a different meaning or used in a different context. English is used by foreigners, Japanese themselves, the companies who create/advertise products. Another example could be w:Calpis, the name, which is used in Japan but marketed as "Calpico" in the US. --Anatoli (обсудить) 04:13, 9 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
