Abstract

L. Bidermann-pasques, J. Humbley : The Reception of English words in the French Press : Propositions for the Harmonisation of

English loan-words

The use of foreign words in a French text raises problems, some of which involve spelling. Not all foreign words that appear in

newspapers will necessarily become part of the language : far from it. However, they do pose problems for spelling that must be

dealt with. From a corpus of neologisms, we examine the reception of various English words as used in a Parisian daily paper,

and the problems they pose for French-speaking journalists and correctors. Then, taking as a model English loan words already

present in French dictionaries, and examining the main tendencies and principles of the French orthographic system, we propose

a number of solutions that could be adopted for the spelling of these words.
