A Study of the English pronunciation of John Manjiro (1827-1898): What was it like and was it influenced by the local dialect of his Japanese hometown, Tosashimizu of Kochi Prefecture? MasaNobu HoriGuchi This paper examines John Manjiro s English pronunciation based on books he wrote by himself as well as on his oral reports which were written down by other transcribers. In 1841, at the age of 14, John Manjiro (John Mung or Manjiro Nakayama; 1827-1898), left the local port by boat one day to go fishing. He suffered a shipwreck and was stranded on an island in the Pacific Ocean. An American captain rescued him and took him to FairHaven, Massachusetts, where he attended school for several years. About ten years later, in 1851, Manjiro returned to Japan and eventually became the interpreter for the Shogunate contributing greatly to the modernization and opening up of Japan. Many people have argued that, because Manjiro was born in Kochi prefecture far from Tokyo, he must have spoken strange English with a local accent. I, on the other hand, have shown in many cases his transcriptions have traced English pronunication more precisely than those of modern-day Japanese people. I have also tried to clarify the main reason why modern Japanese people intuitively think of his English as unorthordox and, therefore, accented. With respect to the criteria that Japanese people today judge foreign words to be orthodox or not, I propose that we need to fix two standards of whether the Japanese transcription of the English seems modern or old-fashioned and whether this transcription seems normative or not. I propose that even if a transcribing system traces English sounds and phonological structures very precisely, like in the case of Manjiro, it cannot be orthodox unless it is considered both modern and normative.
