This article is from the misc anime
FAQ, by nikkou with numerous contributions by others.
1.1. Isn't 'anime' a French word?
Well, it is, but the Japanese 'anime' is a loanword adapted from the
English word 'animation'. The Japanese use it to refer to all
animated works, but 'anime' has been adopted by the majority of
English speakers to refer only to Japanese animation. Geddit? Please
don't make me repeat that again...
The range of Japanese animation made is rather like that for TV. It
is used for both education and entertainment, some are a happy medium
of both. There are programmes made for children, teenagers, young
adults to those of a certain age. *ahem*
