A.mer.i.can.i.smE5mer7I7kE7nI7z[mn [C]An Americanism is a word or expression which originated in the United States but is used by people in other countries, esp. those where English is spoken.美国词语Have a nice day!' is an Americanism which many British people find extremely irritating. Have a nice day!这句美国话使许多英国人感到极为刺耳。Far from polluting the English language, I would say Americanisms such as 'show off' and 'beat up' have enriched it.我认为像show off和beat up这些美国词语决不是污染了英语,而是丰富了英语。
