Les verbes vidéoludiques empruntés à l'anglais: une analyse comparée multilingue

This article offers a comparative analysis of English-derived gaming verbs and their integration into four languages: Polish, Czech, French, and Italian. Drawing on an oral corpus composed of YouTube videos, the study identifies the English verbs that are common to all four languages in gaming interactions and examines their morphological and syntactic adaptation in each language. Particular attention is given to issues of verbal neology, focusing on how players appropriate and adapt Anglophone terms within their linguistic contexts. The analysis also explores the degree of semantic shift from the original English meanings, highlighting how these borrowed verbs evolve in usage. By investigating cross-linguistic patterns and divergences, the study sheds light on the processes of lexical borrowing and linguistic creativity within gaming communities
