Upotreba i mesto „franglais” u francuskoj vojnoj terminologiji
The use and place of franglais in French military Terminology

Summary/Abstract: In the present work, the author analyses the use of franglais or Frenglish in the French military linguistic register, in which it is becoming more and more present. He notes that this linguistic situation is particularly noticeable among officers, who very often use Anglicisms. English is frequently used even in places where it would be better to use existing French terms. Linguists whose fields of research focus on military terminology view the presence of Anglicisms mainly as a negative phenomenon. It impoverishes military language and results in the neglect of French military terms. Therefore, some linguists do not hesitate to talk about English “linguistic pollution”.
