Description
Summary:Through online economic texts published in 2013 by the French press following the American Congress failure to pass a budget for 2014, we examine how loan terms have made their way in the French terminology of the American budget crisis. Are loan terms replacing a French economic terminology in use? If so, what are the reasons? What are the functions of loan terms in the economic discourse? How do they figure in context? In short, a textual and sociolinguistic approach of loan terms appears through this present study.
