Abstract

German and Dutch share linguistic and geographical boundaries in the continent. By means of this research, I mean to determine the recent influence of German (100 million native speakers) on Dutch (23 million speakers as their mother tongue). A corpus of German loanwords will be the core to try and clarify the most influential semantic fields on Dutch nowadays. They will be dealt with within the historical context which has originated the appearance of these particular words. Hence, I‟ll be able to determine what type of vocabulary has been influential and which has been the degree of contact between both languages during the first thirteen years of 21st century.
