Summary/Abstract: The contemporary international influence of the English language is increasingly talked about in terms of a linguistic globalization generated by the alert rhythms of the economic, political and social contacts of the XXI century (Adriana Stoichițoiu-Ichim, 2002: 259). So the influence of English on the lexicon of some languages, also of international circulation, meets a need for efficient and fast communication in the context of hasty social and economic transformations. It lends itself to borrowing English terms not only the languages spoken for example in SE Europe, where the modernization of socio- political life has been much delayed by political conjuncture, but also languages like French, Italian, Spanish, German as a result of political and economic contacts, of bilingual speakers and the audio-visual and written press.
