There are many Japanese expressions from English, but the meanings are different in the two languages. One example is “morning service.” In Japan, when you go to a cafe and order a cup of coffee or tea, something like a slice of toast and a boiled egg comes with the drink. In English, however, morning service means a worship service at a church. I saw a menu which said “morning service” in English, but I think it should be “breakfast special.” If English speakers see “morning service” on the menu, they might think that church services are conducted in the coffee shop!
