The Influence of Globalization on Language Practices: the Role of Anglicisms and Multilingual Blending in Modern Texts

Abstract

This study explores the increasing penetration of Anglicisms into national languages, particularly focusing on Ukraine, to assess the broader implications of globalization on language development and policy. Anglicisms have become integral to political and scientific communication, often shaping journalistic discourse and influencing public understanding. The research identifies key lexical and thematic domains where Anglicisms are most prevalent, examining their conceptual role in article headlines and their functional characteristics within Ukrainian-language journalism. It also traces the effects of language diffusion on national language policy. The study utilizes both theoretical and empirical methodologies, including synchronous, contextual, functional, comparative, and experimental methods, alongside statistical analysis.
