| Abstract: | This paper describes a project dealing with the role played by global English in initiating language change via language contact in translation and multilingual text production. The paper presents the theoretical background, the analytical procedure, the corpus and first results of this project. The working hypothesis underlying this project is that the increasing dominance of the English language as a global Lingua Franca impacts on translations from English into other major European languages and on parallel text production. Following an outline of the model of analysis and the corpus, major results of the analyses of English source texts and their German translations are presented and discussed. |
