My impression (and I believe that it&#x27;s a good thing) is that English is swallowing languages word for word. Polish for example - Poland is a country pretty much positively obsessed with US, especially the older people. There&#x27;s a lot of concepts that we literally take over from English, for example &quot;pro choice&quot;. We&#x27;re living in an increasingly Western global culture. It&#x27;s surprising that we&#x27;re seeing so much Chinese influence in our languages.
