Reviews

Review from previous edition "This dictionary, meticulously recording the forms, meanings, usage and history of individual Anglicisms in various European languages offers a wealth of information and is a valuable tool for further research on the subject. It is an important resource for comparative analysis and the study of linguistic variation and change... The dictionary will certainly be of interest to linguists and all those who are interested in
the new development trends in European languages resulting from their extensive contact with English." Linguist List
`The trilogy is a triumph of conception, design and implementation.'
Times Higher Education Supplement
`The volumes edited by Manfred Görlach form a homogeneous whole and represent the most complete, systematic, and up-to-date study of the impact of English on Europe. Their importance can hardly be overestimated: lexicographers, linguists and students interested in linguistic variation and change, in comparative linguistic studies, and translators will find in them an invaluable aid for their work. Manfred Gölach and his team deserve our warmest
congratulations.'
