5. INTERNET
The explosion in technology and computer terminology was one of the reasons that explain the dominance of the USA in English today.
Ex: software, hacker, laptop, database, online, hi-tech, microchip
There are a lot of “neologism”: download,  emoticon, podcast, firewall
There is also a “verbification” of nouns : to google, to friend, to , to text
