    hi,

    thanks for the pointer to the wikipedia article. I think the number of English terms in everyday German is even higher, especially among German youth. E.g. the word “event” has been nearly replaced by “Ereignis”. Funnily, there are also words like “Handy” (means mobile phone) that are pronounced like English words.

    Best regards,
    Peter
