Sažetak

We can all witness that the global economy, the use of the Internet and social media have result-ed in a greater number of English business terms circulating on the global level, thus inevitably affecting the Croatian language as well. In this article, the authors observe different translations of certain frequently used business English terms from the course books and differences in their perception in English and Croatian language. These differences may be due to students` immer-sion in the new social and educational environment, their previous knowledge of English lan-guage and their acquisition of new vocabulary for specific purposes during their studies at the Polytechnic of Šibenik.
