Melander, Bjorn – Current Issues in Language & Society, 2000
Addresses the linguistic effects of an increased "Englishization" of Sweden. Focuses on English loanwords, the dominating role of English as a source language for translations, and losses of domains of usage to English. Reports results from an investigation of the use of Swedish within different European bodies. (Author/VWL)
