"You will find words and expressions in this simplified conversation dictionary which are usually omitted from better class tourist literature. I refer, for example, to Ugoku-to Korosu-zo! (If you move you're a dead man!); Te Age! (Hands up!); Kosan Yo! (Surrender!); rakkasan-hei (paratroops), and so on. These innovations, many of them dealing with current war idiom, should need no explanation to those of our armed forces who know how the Japanese enemy has frequently used a smattering of English in an effort to create confusion from which he might profit." (Publisher's description).
