To anglicise (or in North American English anglicize) is to adapt a foreign word into the English language, often modifying its form to correspond to standard English French demoiselle, meaning "little lady". Another common type of anglicisation is the inclusion of a foreign article as part of a noun (eg. algebra, lavolta).


Names can be anglicised, for example, Johann Müller could become John Miller.
