6. BORROWING
•
•
the process
of taking words
from other
languages

7. Other languages, of course, borrow terms from English, as in
the Japanese use of suupaa or suupaamaaketto
(“supermarket”) and taipuraitaa (“typewriter”), Hungarians
talking about sport, klub and futbal, or the French discussing
problems of le stress, over a glass of le whisky, during le
weekend. In some cases, the borrowed
words may be used with quite different meanings, as in the
contemporary German use of the English words partner and
look in the phrase im Partnerlook to describe two people
who are together and are wearing similar clothing. There is
no equivalent use of
this expression in English.

8. LOAN-TRANSLATION:
a type of borrowing in which each element of a
word is translated into the borrowing language,
also called calque.
