Conclusion: Features of Borrowing from English in 12 Languages --$tBibliography --$tIndex 330 $aThis volume accounts for the motives for contemporary lexical borrowing from English, using a comparative approach and a broad cross-cultural perspective. It investigates the processes involved in the penetration of English vocabulary into new environments and the extent of their integration into twelve languages representing several language families, including Icelandic, Dutch, French, Russian, Hungarian, Hebrew, Arabic, Amharic, Persian, Japanese, Taiwan Chinese, and several languages spoken in southern India. Some of these languages are studied here in the context of borrowing for the first time ever. All in all, this volume suggests that the English lexical 'invasion', as it is often referred to, is a natural and inevitable process. It is driven by psycholinguistic, sociolinguistic, and socio-historical factors, of which the primary determinants of variability are associated with ethnic and linguistic diversity. 410 0$aMultilingual Matters, No. 140 606 $aEnglish language$xInfluence on foreign languages 606 $aLanguage and languages$xForeign elements 606 $aEnglish language$xGlobalization 615 0$aEnglish language$xInfluence on foreign languages. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xForeign elements. 615 0$aEnglish language$xGlobalization. 676 $a420.9 701 $aRosenhouse$b J$01555600 701 $aKowner$b Rotem$01473618 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782298703321 996 $aGlobally speaking$93817629 997 $aUNINA
