The paper describes the sociolinguistic history of English in one of the post-Soviet Eastern European countries - Lithuania - covering three post-1990 decades. The aim is to examine the dynamics of the spread of English in relation to the ‘non-native’ Russian, the main lingua franca and L2 in this region after WWII until 1990. Based on a set of attitudinal, educational and self-assessment data as well as mixed language use for identity construction, the study shows that English was not accepted as rapidly as is sometimes claimed. With lower English scores and additional Russian, the ‘periphery’ of the Expanding Circle remains noticeably distinct from the European context. In demographic terms, however, the end of the third post-1990 decade can be considered a turning point in the sociolinguistic development of the community, led by the youth generations born around 1990 and after.

In the context of global English, children are an interesting target group both from a marketing and a linguistic perspective, yet the use of English in advertising for children has so far received little research attention. Investigating English in a corpus of 3566 free morphemes (smallest independent linguistic elements) in 98 TV product advertisements aimed at Dutch-speaking children in Flanders, Belgium, this study addresses the methodological question of what counts as ‘English’ before inquiring into: (1) the overall amount of English; (2) which parts of the adverts are susceptible to English; and (3) the types of English used. Results show 80% of the adverts contain English, but English accounts for only 13% of the total free morphemes in the adverts. 70% of adverts contain English in the product or company name, which suggests that even in advertising language, the use of English is limited to specific functions in the Dutch-speaking Belgian context.
