嗯，还真是这样！各种语言好像都有挺多的英语外来词汇，毕竟它是全球性的语言嘛。不过汉语里也有一些来自日语的外来词。它们在日语里就以汉字形式出现，但有些读音和意思都和汉语不同。这部分外来词我们一般不容易感受到。
ng4 ，hái zhēnshì zhèyàng ！gèzhǒng yǔyán hǎoxiàng dōu yǒu tǐng duō de yīngyǔ wàilái cíhuì ，bìjìng tā shì quánqiúxìng de yǔyán ma 。bùguò hànyǔ lǐ yě yǒu yīxiē láizì rìyǔ de wàiláicí 。tāmen zài rìyǔ lǐ jiù yǐ hànzì xíngshì chūxiàn ，dàn yǒuxiē dúyīn hé yìsi dōu hé hànyǔ bùtóng 。zhè bùfen wàiláicí wǒmen yībān bù róngyì gǎnshòudào 。
Oh, it's so true. It seems like all languages have a lot of words from English. It is a global language, after all. But Chinese also has some words from Japanese. In Japanese, they are expressed with Chinese characters, but some of their readings and meanings are different. It's generally not easy for us to come into contact with these.

那当然，因为它们是直接从日语里搬过来的，意思都是对应的。可是还有一些词汇就很有复杂的渊源。比如说“社会”这个词，在古代汉语里是“集会结社”的意思，日本人拿它来翻译英语的society，我们再借到汉语里来，才成为今天的意思。
nà dāngrán ，yīnwèi tāmen shì zhíjiē cóng rìyǔ lǐ bānguòlai de ，yìsi dōu shì duìyìng de 。kěshì hái yǒu yīxiē cíhuì jiù hěn yǒu fùzá de yuānyuán 。bǐrú shuō “shèhuì ”zhège cí ，zài gǔdài hànyǔ lǐ shì “jíhuì jiéshè ”de yìsi ，rìběnrén ná tā lái fānyì yīngyǔ de society ，wǒmen zài jièdào hànyǔ lǐ lái ，cái chéngwéi jīntiān de yìsi 。
Of course, they were directly brought over from Japanese, with corresponding meanings. But the origin of some words is really complicated. For example，''society." In ancient Chinese it meant ''to form an association." The Japanese used it to translate the English word ''society." It only came into its modern meaning after Chinese borrowed it again.
