Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, it is not difficult to notice a great number of Anglicisms. In the linguistic practice, there is no extensive research on this phenomenon. That is one of the reasons why so little is known about the extent of Anglicisms appearance at certain units, for five, ten or more years. The level, tempo of adaptation are not known. It seems that no appropriate measures are taken to combat the use of unjustified Anglicisms, which suppress many of the same words in the Serbian language. Such a linguistic practice threatens the natural development of the Serbian language and to spread a surrogate that is neither English nor Serbian. So, it seems necessary to present, on a small sample, the presence and growth of Anglicisms in textbooks of economics.
