Abstract
Anglicisms are loanwords which come from English and can be found in a great number of languages in the world. This occurrence is owed to the status of the United States of America as a global power, but also to the status of the English language itself as a lingua franca. The influence of English became so strong, that even when it is learned as an L2 it does not only influence the L1 of the speakers, but also other languages learned as an L2. In this paper, participants who study English and German as an L2 and whose L1 is Croatian will be taken as a study group to assess the influence of English on the learning process of German. The aim of this paper is to investigate whether and to what extent students of English and German prefer to use Anglicisms in German as opposed to students who study only German. Twenty Anglicisms (such as Job, Party, happy) as well as their German counterparts (Arbeit, Feier, glücklich) will be taken and twenty sets of sentences will be constructed in German to explore which sentences, and therefore Anglicisms, will be chosen by the participants. The paper will also provide a base for further study of language contact and will also show to which extent other languages are influenced by English when they are an L2.
