Description: Loanwords are very influential in language learning because learners have a tendency to pronounce or write target language’s words based on the corresponding loanwords in their first languages. For this reason, research on English loanwords in both Thai and Indonesian is a potential source for Thai and Indonesian language learning, and even English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning in Thailand and Indonesia. The objective of this work is to identify the differences and similarities between English loanwords in Thai and those in Indonesian as well as to facilitate a detailed exploration of how English loanwords are shaped by the linguistics of Southeast Asian languages.
