GLADデータベースの作成と公開―英語借用のオープンデータの現状と多言語比較研究への活用の可能性

This paper introduces the GLAD database, an Anglicism database of which the author is involved in the development, and presents its current state and prospective use. The GLAD database is open data developed by the cooperation of scholars studying Anglicisms in 17 different languages, with the aim to help promote cross-linguistic comparisons. This paper describes the background, criteria, and methods used for the development of the database, as well as issues such as unavoidable inconsistences among the datasets of the 17 languages. It also introduces the potential usage of the database in order to promote the use of the database and help progress the research of global Anglicisms.
