As a result of the contact with English, the Romanian vocabulary is subject to constant changes, manifested by massive loans from English. Some of them are tasked to fill „lexical gaps”, especially in the economic, political, informational domains, others with a narrow circulation, having the role of adding a colour to the current communication. The problem that appears is related to how English orthography is adapted to the Romanian spelling. The English influence on Romanian vocabulary is not in the stage of simple observations, but is lately the subject of separate and serious investigations.
