Abstract:

Editor’s Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced title.

English has a considerable history in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, and
present-day English has a significant influence on the vocabulary of modern
German. Examining the ongoing influence of English on German in these
countries, Raymond Hickey leads a team of authors to explore a wide range of
topics, such as the history of English teaching in Germany, the type of
English spoken in German-speaking countries today, and the role of English in
German society. Borrowings from English in present-day German, as well as the
use of English in public places, is also discussed, as is the use of English
by non-Germans living in Germany, and the situation of Germany as a country
with English as a foreign language. Comparisons with other European countries
are also analysed, and a consideration of the German-English interface in
places as far apart as the United States and Namibia, is also presented.
