===German=== {{main|Denglisch}} Denglisch is a pejorative term used in German describing the increased use of anglicisms and [[pseudo-anglicism]]s in the German language. It is a [[portmanteau]] of the German words {{langx|de|Deutsch|label=none}} (''German'') and {{langx|de|Englisch|label=none}}. The term is first recorded from 1965.<ref name="Lambert, James 2018">Lambert, James. 2018. A multitude of 'lishes': The nomenclature of hybridity. ''English World-wide'', 39(1): 23. DOI: 10.1075/eww.38.3.04lam</ref> To some extent, the influence of English on German can be from normal language contact. The term Denglisch is however mostly reserved for forced, excessive exercises in anglicisation, or pseudo-anglicisation, of the German language.
