🌖 CAPITOLO 4

Eine Datei „downloaden“, eine Reise „cancellen“, ein „Wellness-Wochenende“ verbringen. Alle diese englischen Wörter sind in die deutsche Sprache gewandert. Viele dieser Wörter sind schon lange integriert: Zum Beispiel wird „Ticket“ statt „Fahrkarte“ nicht mehr als Fremdkörper gesehen. 
Warum breitet sich „Denglisch“, diese Mischung aus Deutsch und Englisch immer mehr aus?
Ein Grund ist sicher das Internet: dort ist Englisch die vorherrschende Sprache. Zum anderen spielt die Globalisierung eine große Rolle. Englisch als Weltsprache und "lingua franca" ist in der internationalen Vernetztheit unentbehrlich. Und natürlich ist Englisch einfach „cool“. Es ist so cool, dass man in Deutschland Wörter erfunden hat, die ein Brite oder Amerikaner nie verwenden würde. Ein Beispiel dafür ist das Wort „Handy“ für ein Mobiltelefon.
Denglisch hat in Deutschland viele Kritiker. Ihnen kann man entgegenhalten, dass sich Sprache zu allen Zeiten gewandelt hat und diesen Wandel wird niemand aufhalten.

In the late 1970s, a naive young secretary abandons her hometown in Cleveland for San Francisco, and heads into a brave new world of strange and wonderful characters, in this cult classic novel by the Charles Dickens of San Francisco Armistead Maupin. Maupin writes in a simple, but creative way to blend together the lives of some of the city's most-eccentric inhabitants; which makes the story highly accessible for language learners*.

*Suitable for adults over the age of 18.

Planning has begun on a new, car-free town which the authorities plan to locate on waste ground, close to the Condolanda power plant. It will consist of houses, parks and public transport facilities, as well as public buildings such as a police station, a secondary school, town hall, etc. There will be commercial buildings including a shopping mall, office blocks, retail stores and a medical centre. There will also be a large area of modem apartment blocks, and residents will welcome the addition of a nearby leisure centre. The heating for all the buildings will come at low cost from the power plant.
