Researchers have developed Observatorio Lazaro, a system designed to track the use of English loanwords, or anglicisms, within the Spanish digital press. Since April 2020, this system has automatically identified and cataloged over two million borrowings across nearly two million articles. The analysis indicates that anglicisms appear at a stable rate of approximately two per thousand tokens and that the vocabulary of these loanwords is continually expanding, with many appearing only once.
