In this thesis, the emphasis is on the analysis of the frequency of use of anglicisms in television shows and articles of political, showbiz and sports nature in the Croatian electronic media. The electronic media that were analyzed are Croatian television shows Otvoreno, In magazin and RTL Sport and Croatian daily online newspaper 24sata. In order to introduce the widespread use of the English language, this thesis begins with a discussion of its status as a global language, followed by an overview of the theoretical background on anglicisms and its adaptation in the Croatian language on four levels. Finally, the corpus from Croatian television shows and online newspaper was analyzed and discussed. The aim of this analysis was to determine in which types of Croatian television shows and online newspaper articles the highest number of anglicisms appear, whether in different electronic media anglicisms are most represented in areas of the same nature and which is the most common type and word class of the anglicisms found. The findings suggest that the anglicisms found in both analyzed electronic media are most represented in the area of showbiz, while the area of politics contains the smallest number of anglicisms. Furthermore, the majority of anglicisms found in both electronic media are loan blends and belong to the word class of nouns, which indicates that there is no difference between them in terms of the area of greatest representation of anglicisms, type of anglicisms and word class to which they belong.
