Abstract
This thesis studies the way in which linguistic elements are borrowed from English to Croatian in the special field of Economics. In order to introduce the linguistic characteristics of such a field, terminology as a field of study and features of special languages are discussed, followed by a closer look at term adaptation and term creation strategies available in Croatian. The next chapter contains an overview of the theory of language contact and linguistic borrowing, possible motives for borrowing, and principles that can be used to choose the most appropriate terms. Different proposed loan classifications are described in preparation for categorizing loans found in the corpus. The fifth chapter is based on an analysis and comparison of several chapters from two Economics textbooks, different in the fact that one is originally written in Croatian and the other is a translation from English into Croatian. The aim of the analysis was to see what kind of approaches were taken while handling terminology that has entered from English into Croatian and how those approaches may differ depending on whether a text is translated from English or originally written in Croatian. Through close reading of the texts, it is concluded that the text written originally in Croatian contained more loanwords of different types.
