| Summary: | This piece of research presents an analysis of the use of anglicisms in the Spanish press at
the beginning of the 21st century. Specifically, it concentrates on their distribution in texts
belonging to different thematic domains. Thus, the purpose of this study is to establish
a ranking of specialised fields in terms of the frequency with which anglicisms are employed
in them. In order to do so, the Corpus de Referencia del Español Actual (CREA),
compiled by the Real Academia Española, is used as the source for texts, which supports
the reliability and representativeness of the present work. |
