Abstract:
The article examines the use of Anglicisms in the modern Kazakh media text, focuses on
the similarities and differences in their adoption and adaptation to the language system. In this
regard, the study of the historical conditions of the penetration of Anglicisms and the description
of the lexical and semantic spheres of their use are given. The functions of this rapidly growing
lexical group reflect a wide range of socio-political and cultural-humanitarian processes taking
place in modern society. This active layer of the lexical system of the language testifies to the
scientific and technological progress of Kazakhstan, which is involved in the process of
globalization.
