Abstract

The aim of the research is to identify the main cases of the functioning of Anglicisms in the thematic group “Fashion” in the Spanish media discourse. The research is carried out involving extensive modern material, namely the material of the electronic versions of the newspapers El País, El Mundo and ABC over the past five years (2018-2023). The scientific novelty of the work lies in conducting a comprehensive study of the Anglicisms belonging to the thematic sphere “Fashion” functioning in the Spanish media discourse. It is the first time that the use of the Anglicisms of the Spanish media discourse at all significant language levels (spelling, lexis and grammar) in modern Spanish print media has been analysed and a comparative analysis of the linguistic features of Anglicisms in three leading print media has been carried out, which served as the basis for their classification. The research findings showed that the Anglicisms of this thematic group are mainly borrowed directly from English, without changing their English graphics and maintaining pronunciation close to the norms of the original English language. Most of the borrowings are nouns that are embedded in the Spanish language system by obtaining the gender category (uncharacteristic of the English language).
