Abstract: (En) The essay attempts to draw a line between the multiple influences that are exercised on the lexical domain of modern Hebrew. The purist drives of the Language Academy, on the one hand, and the popular exposure to the fast evolving European jargons, on the other hand, have a portentous effect on the new linguistic horizon. The essay pursues the delineation of these influences, as well as the identification of the mechanisms through which they act.
