Usually its like just a few words sprinkled in, or at most like one or two lines…
Literally I feel like they’re just trying to say: “Hey this is a foreign language I’m sooo cooool!”

Wonderful day!
Just in case, there’s a term in “anglicism”:
For more than a decade, I’ve been trying to learn Russian, mostly for the art and the job I have. And, I did notice that there are words, in common/casual speech that do indeed include pure English terms/words, or even adapted from.
There’s a Russian page for “Anglicism”, too:
- https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Англицизмы
It makes sense, since it’s one of the most easiest languages out there, with straightforward rules, with some exceptions you get on the road, and rare/archaic words you get eventually memorized in your own dictionary.
The Email messages are in the common/formal form/template even, you may know, too! I.e., header/body/footer/signature.
For example, I’ll try recalling some:
- “гаджет” ~ “gadget”;
- “дилер” ~ “dealer”;
- “инспирированный” ~ “inspired” (lat. inspiratio);
- “фрилансер” ~ “freelancer”;
- “комп”/“компьютер” ~ “computer”;
- “чилить”/“чилю” ~ “chilling”;
- “таск” ~ “task”;
- “бейба” ~ “baby”;
- “чика” ~ “chick”;
- “аутсорсинг” ~ “outsource”;
- “секси” ~ “sexy”;
- “гайд” ~ “guide”;
- “булинг” ~ “bulling”;
- “трабл” ~ “trouble”;
- “маркетинг” ~ “marketing”;
- “постить” ~ “to post” (social network posts/articles);
- “гамать” ~ “to play a game”;
- “клатч” ~ “clutch”;
- “дедлайн” ~ “deadline”;
- “бит” ~ “bit”;
- “байт” ~ “byte”;
- “клуб” ~ “club”;
…
- or even… “эйчар” ~ “HR” (head hunter, employer)…
These I recalled now only, and I do believe it’s possible to write/base any English word in Russian.
Though, nowadays, my main is English, I was born in Lithuania, and Lithuanian language does also feature such words!
For example, “skenuoti” (to scan); “baitas” (byte), “seifas” (safe/safebox); “clubas” (club); etc.
Such a miraculous magnificent world of language development!
