Most of the older studies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003efocus on the synchronic aspects whereas newer studies also take a diachronic view into\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003econsideration (cf. Burmasova, 10). Furthermore, morphological and orthographic aspects\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eplay a role in addition of the frequency of use (cf. Burmasova, 11).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNowadays, there are a lot of critical voices which reject the use of anglicisms because they\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003efear a loss of German language heritage. There are even some initiatives providing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eequivalents for every English word. The Verein deutscher Sprache (Association of the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGerman Language), for instance, emphasizes the importance of German equivalents Thus,\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethe question is whether it is possible to find equivalents for every anglicisms and if those\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eequivalents are suitable. Moreover, the question arises if anglicisms are on the rise to an\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eextend where they may threaten the German language.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this term paper, I want to take a closer look on the use of anglicisms in the press in order\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eto find an answer to these questions. In the course of this, I want to refer to studies by\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNICOLE PLUMER, ALEXANDRA ZURN and CHRISTIANE GOTZELER. I also want to provide some\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003esamples from Stern and Bild and present my own results. Before that, a definition of the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eterm anglicism will be given. Moreover, I want to take historical developments into\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003econsideration, including German reactions to certain changes. After that, a classification of\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eanglicisms will be provided in order to become aware of the different types. Furthermore, I want to present some linguistic changes connected to anglicisms. Lastly, I want to provide\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003esome considerations concerning the language of the press and present my own little study\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ein this field before I come to my conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783656402893\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrom past to present-day language of the press\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783656402893","offer_id":39427671621725,"sku":"9783656402893","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/c132bd0b-75d6-4cd4-a5b8-fa2365bbe355.jpg?v=1777955950","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/anglicisms-in-german-from-past-to-present-day-language-of-the-press-von-antje-holtmann","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
