• The study of the English language was introduced into the Japaneseupper-primary curriculum in 2011，The adoption of this subject has notbeen without controversy.The English language has a history ofdisplacing and replacing languages in other countries.However it is notconsidered that language shift to English could occur in Japan.The teaching of English may be associated with certain cultural values，because there is no such thing as a culturally neutral language.Accordingly, a possible conflict exists between the desire to increase thenext generation's English proficiency, and the awareness of English as alaguage with a history of intrusion into other cultures.
