Summary/Abstract: Having in mind the fact that, due to the powerful and uncontrollable influx of Anglicisms in recent years, terminological Anglicisms in Serbian are predominant in the fields such as economics, IT, sports, as well as in many other specialized fields, the paper investigates the ways how these Anglicisms should be treated and whether their dominance in different fields may facilitate process of vocabulary acquisition in ESP classrooms. The analysis showed that these terms deserve specific attention in the process of vocabulary acquisition in ESP due to various reasons, which are elaborated on in the paper.
