The author discusses some misconceptions about the Japanese language and its functioning as appearing in the Japanese linguistic literature in post-War Japan. Among them: the uniqueness of the Japanese language, its richness, usage of indigenous vocabulary. He argues that these misconceptions originated in the post War period and suggests to approach them as a cultural and psychological phenomenon. The author declares that there is no conflict of interest
