Summary/Abstract: Our communication is an overview of anglicisms recently entered in the two Romance languages, Italian and Romanian, by using the information provided by two great Italian linguists, Giuseppe Antonelli and Gian Luigi Beccaria, but also from personal observations while listening to radio broadcasts or watching Italian and Romanian TV channels, or by reading online and off line newspapers or tourist information. This massive penetration of anglicisms in Romanian, about which many have already written a lot is due to the existence of multinational companies in our big cities, to IT industry development, to the development of the internet as well as of social media.
