Anglicism

Sure that all readers understand this?

In today's business jargon, we often use expressions from English business language. Depending on the audience, however, these expressions exclude people: 

  • They do not understand an Anglicism or misinterpret it because they have been through a different education or do not work in the same professional field.
  • The use of Anglicisms is perceived as exclusionary, arrogant and 'from above'.

What can you do?

Try to remember the German terms and use them. You may also need several words to describe your thoughts. This will make your statement a little longer, but more precise.
