The Metamorphosis of English: Versions of Other Languages
Richard M. Swiderski
Swiderski extends our understanding of the "predatory" aspects of the language as he shows how English acquires and is transformed by the other languages with which it comes into contact. Examples begin with major languages, especially Spanish and Chinese, and then look at less obvious connections.
