Engrish refers to unusual forms of English language usage by native speakers of some East Asian languages. The term itself relates to Japanese speakers' tendency to inadvertently substitute the English phonemes "R" and "L" for one another, because the Japanese language has one alveolar consonant in place for both. The related term "wasei-eigo" refers to pseudo-anglicisms that have entered into everyday Japanese.
While the term may refer to spoken English, it is more often used to describe written English. Engrish can be found in many places, including signs, menus, and advertisements. Terms such as Japanglish, Japlish or Janglish for Japan, Konglish for Korea, and Chinglish for China are more specific terms for Engrish.
@VangeistXIII But I see that you've corrected at least 3 people on this matter.
And I'm wondering, why does it matter so much to you that some people think he's Irish instead of Scottish if he's a cartoon character? Is it really worth that much of your time?
And I'm also wondering why you try to correct somebody who is obviously making a joke.
Funny thing is...I think that totally sounds like heavily accented English.
As in, he's not using straight Japanese phonetics, like a Japanese person speaking a sentence peppered with English loan words would. I could almost mistake that for an unspeakably heavy southern French accent...or at least, someone trying to impersonate an unspeakably heavy southern French accent.
@NeutralDrow Yeah, for Japan, a country that has little relation to English and western countries, they at least tried their best. The German words in the Hellsing-OVA's are hilarious as well. :)
I'd like to see anyone in the west try the Father Andersen "AMEN" cry.
You'd have to be some freak genetic crossbreed of Christopher Lee, James Earl Jones, Tim Curry (for a dash of creepy), and a few other people with awesome voices.
@thesailormercury1 I guess he kind of works for the nazi guys since he's a catholic in the show. Which would technically make him a bad guy. Alucard kills a bunch of people so you can call him a bad guy on principle for not being a hero, but he is rather an anti hero. Technically the good guy of the show.
@thesailormercury1 Yeah. And Father Anderson is mainly a bad guy. I always viewed Catholics as evil motherfuckers. However Andersen other than his fanatic religious way is a pretty cool character.
How ironic: Norio Wakamoto plays a priest that says we should love the lord, Jesus Christ, or be accused of lord amen.... Don't we already love Norio as our God?
FUCK. I'm dead, I'm just dead. This killed me.
