Abstract: The development of human society is the development of all its
constituent cultures, and, accordingly, of all languages. Cultures undergo a certain
historical development both independently of other cultures and (to a very large extent)
in interaction with them. The presented work is devoted to the topic "Classification of
borrowings in the English language". The problem of this study has relevance in the
modern world. This is evidenced by the frequent raising, and later the study of the
issues of language borrowings, which extend their influence to the most diverse spheres
of activity, both of certain generations and the development of nations as a whole. No
language is “pure”—any language has admixture-borrowings. English is no exception.
It coexists with words from Latin, French, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, and many other
languages. And, therefore, the study of the above problem has been and will be
relevant, due to the close connection of language borrowings with the general history
of the past and the prospects for the development of languages in the future.
