Japanese words of Dutch origin
- Japanese words of Dutch origin
The Dutch East India Company started trading in Japan from the factory of Hirado in 1609. In 1640, they were transferred to Dejima, and from then on until 1854 remained the only Westerners allowed access to Japan. Numerous exchanges occurred, leading to a branch of Western learning in Japan known as "rangaku", or "Dutch learning". In the process, a number of terms were adopted from Dutch into the Japanese language.
