    En el ámbito rumano, la comunicación en el lugar de trabajo ha experimentado cambios importantes en las últimas décadas. Las compañías multinacionales fueron implementando gradualmente modelos y prácticas comunicativas occidentales y norteamericanas. Por consiguiente, se puede hablar hoy día de la aparición de nuevos modelos comunicativos en el lenguaje profesional rumano. En el presente trabajo, nos enfocamos principalmente en tres aspectos que conciernen diferentes sectores de la lingüística: los nuevos modelos discursivos, las innovaciones léxico-semánticas, y las fórmulas de saludo. Los datos de este trabajo fueron seleccionados del corpus ‘Workplace communication. Tentative typology of Romanian professional written texts’ original. Dicho corpus contiene más de 126 textos redactados en diversos ámbitos de actividad (comercio, producción, administración, educación). Los textos escogidos varían en cuanto a sus marcos participativos, su estructura y su temática. Este trabajo demostrará e ilustrará la modalidad en que diferentes estructuras discursivas han sido adaptadas a lo específico de la comunicación intra-organizacional rumana, pero asimismo se concentrará en la reorganización del nivel léxico bajo la influencia del inglés;

    además, pondrá de relieve las modificaciones que se pueden detectar en un análisis pormenorizado a nivel micro-estructural de las fórmulas de saludo en que predominan el tuteo familiar y el nombre de pila como apelativo

    Romanian workplace communication has changed significantly in the past two decades. Multinational companies have implemented Western European and American communicative practices and pattern. Thus, new communicative patterns have emerged in professional Romanian. In this paper we present part of the results of a larger on-going research project, ‘Professional Language in Present-day Romanian. Linguistic Patterns and Discursive Structures’, which is supported by a governmental, grant (CNCSIS, ID 142). Within the frameworks of sociolinguistics and discourse analysis, we will focus on three aspects that cover various linguistic compartments: new textual patterns, lexico-semantic innovations, and salutation formulas. The data for this paper have been selected from the corpus ‘Workplace communication. Tentative typology of Romanian professional written texts’. The corpus contains 126 texts, which were written in various fields of activity (commercial, production, administrative, educational, military, and medical). In this paper, we argue and exemplify the ways in which various discursive structures have been adapted to the Romanian specificities of intra-organizational communication, and we lay special emphasis on the reorganization of the lexical level as a result of the influence of English on Romanian as well as on the alterations brought about by the familiar ‘you’ and first name address in salutation formulas
