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.

【Japanese Podcast#31】この言葉(ことば)言(い)わないで！｜Don't say this word

Do you find it harder to be nice and cooperative when you're tired? You're not alone — and there's actually science behind that feeling.

Researchers in Italy looked at how being tired affected people's brains and the decisions they made.

They looked at a total of almost 450 people. The participants all started by doing a set of similar tasks for about 45 minutes — but for one group, the tasks were made much more difficult to make the participants mentally tired.

For example, the mentally tired group was given more difficult quiz questions to answer. And while everyone watched funny videos, the mentally tired group was told to try not to smile or laugh.

Participants then played several economic games that asked them to make decisions that would give different benefits to themselves and others, like deciding how to share points in a group.

It was found that mentally tired participants were much less likely to make cooperative decisions in the games. They were also more likely to choose "antisocial" and "spiteful" options — where they could, say, choose to use some of their own points to reduce someone else's points instead of using them to help themselves or the group.

Why did this happen?

Among the mentally tired group, the researchers found a much stronger increase in "slow-wave" activity in parts of the brain used for things like planning, paying attention, controlling emotions and understanding others. These "slow waves" are similar to the ones seen in our brains when we sleep.

The researchers said this increase in slow waves may explain tired participants' less cooperative decisions.

So when you're tired after a long day, you may be less nice because the parts of your brain you need to help you cooperate are actually going to sleep!
