Résumé
English is gaining importance in almost all domains of everyday life in the German-speaking world. The influence of English on other languages such as German is no longer restricted to technical terms or science, but is socially acceptable and even necessary for German-speaking society. One domain in which many English words would be expected is that of newspaper language. Four authors of M.A. theses, Pia Engler (<i>Die Weltwoche</i> – 1986), Anita Kaiser-Panzer (<i>Neue Zürcher Zeitung</i> und <i>Blick</i> – 1996), Gabi Lämmli (<i>Schaffhauser Nachrichten</i> und <i>Solothurner Zeitung</i> – 2000) und Stephanie Plaschy (<i>Walliser Bote</i> – 2002), analysed the use of English words in different newspapers from the German-speaking part of Switzerland in order to discover whether the readers of these newspapers need a dictionary to find their way through the linguistic jungle of German and English words. This article provides a description of the four studies including their goals, their quantitative and qualitative approaches as well as their results.
