Signs of Change
But there never has been any doubt as to which side was winning. It has always been the brash linguistic invaders. One of the signs of change came in 1990 when the National Textbook Company in Lincolnwood, Illinois, published its Dictionary of Faux Amis by C. W. E. Kirk-Greene. Starting with its Frenglish title, it indirectly documented the way English was altering the French language by including a large number of English words used by the French. Examples are book, building, cake, car, cherry, chips, crash, and legs.
