The paper explores the historical language contact between Japanese and Portuguese, tracing its roots back to the Christian Era in Japan (1549-1639) when Portuguese missionaries and merchants introduced foreign cultural influences. It examines the ongoing interaction between these languages, which peaked in the early twentieth century and continues today due to significant Brazilian and Japanese populations in each country. The study highlights the lasting effects of this linguistic exchange and the cultural connections that have developed over centuries.
