Апстракт
This paper explores the influence of English on Macedonian from a contact linguistics perspective. In language contact situations, linguistic borrowing becomes a common process. The goal of this research is to explore the mechanisms of borrowing from English as Macedonian speakers are increasingly exposed to this language driven by globalization and technological advancement. The analysis focuses on linguistic interactions at both the lexical and morphosyntactic levels. It begins by examining material and pattern borrowing, highlighting how English terms and patterns have been integrated into Macedonian vocabulary. The discussion then turns to the morphosyntactic level, providing a brief overview of how English has influenced Macedonian grammar. The paper concludes with remarks on possible strategies for confining borrowing within reasonable limits in order to ensure the future integrity of the Macedonian language.
