The preeminent English dictionary also added ‘katsu’ and ‘kintsugi’ in its latest (DLC) update
The Oxford English Dictionary runs an update to its repository four times every year. Like DLC for games, these quarterly patches can introduce new words, features, and definition changes. Well, the first quarter of 2024 is about up, and the OED has just updated its linguistic repository to add 23 Japanese words, including the popular anime and manga genre “isekai.” As spotted by The Guardian, the OED’s latest update includes Japanese words from the realms of art, cuisine, and elsewhere.
” While there are two sub-types of the genre—standard ”isekai” or “other world” and “isekaitensei” or “reincarnation into another world”—in English, ”isekai” is the by far the more widely used term. When in certain nerd spaces, especially those revolving around anime and manga, “isekai” is generally understood to mean any story in which a character finds themself in a world that’s not their own.
