This paper addresses the treatment of anglicisms in six normative language chronicles published between 1884 and 2018. One hundred comments were analyzed for each chronicle, for a total of 600. We examined the following aspects: how many anglicisms are commented compared to all addressed topics? Are certain types of anglicisms more frequently mentioned than others? Is the normative judgement on anglicisms negative, positive or neutral? Which arguments are used to criticize an anglicism? We reached the conclusion that anglicisms remain a normative preoccupation for contemporary chronicles, the two most recent ones addressing them more than their predecessors.
