20.500.12556/RUL-181920 Invisible anglicisms in Slovene ǂanǂ overview While Slovene uses numerous visible Anglicisms, which are either established and lexicalized on the one hand, or fashionable luxury loans (Onysko and Winter-Froemel 2011) on the other, there appear several examples of invisible Anglicisms whose structure is clearly influenced by English. These loan translations are extremely difficult to detect; such items and phrases slither into the language and only careful language users sense that something ‘sounds unusual’ or that there might be a more idiomatic alternative in Slovene. The structures and meanings of some of these calques, but also their frequencies, are checked by means of the Slovene corpus Gigafida 2.0. An attempt at a classification of these loan borrowings has been made, as they enter the Slovene language both as individual lexemes or polylexemic units, while also exerting influence on and reshaping syntactic and word-formational patterns. The article illustrates this with examples. invisible anglicisms semantic loans calques Slovene angleščina anglicizmi sposojenke kalki slovenščina true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2026-04-20 09:22:11 2026-04-20 09:22:16 2026-04-21 04:42:28 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 59-75 Št. 24 Letn. 12 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2025-01-01 811.111:811.163.6 2384-8987 264180483 RAZ_Sicherl_Eva_2025.pdf RAZ_Sicherl_Eva_2025.pdf 1 56F2EAB90D70AB386C9DE2293D163AFE cfd39c334699623ef8db11a5c26c951c2b49b2846daedc1fcfd59f2cd10e6bce d89a1a01-3c89-11f1-b0ab-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=232710 https://ojs.unito.it/index.php/ricognizioni/article/view/11876 1 6bbdc5f5-3c89-11f1-b0ab-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=232709 Filozofska fakulteta 0 0 0
