Tóm tắt

The volume explores the history of language contact between Italy and Anglophone countries and illustrates the phenomenon of lexical borrowing. Types of borrowings are discussed on the basis of a usage-based list of Anglicisms, which is part of a multilingual project (GLAD - Global Anglicism Database). It is addressed to scholars and non-experts interested in the input of English words into Italian.
