Minor Types of Word-formation

  • Blending is the formation of a new word which combines the features of both clipping and composition,
  • e.g. boatel (boat + hotel), brunch (breakfast + lunch), smog (smoke + fog), modem (modulator + demodulator).

Minor Types of Word-formation

  • Several structural types of blends:
  • 1) initial part of the word + final part of the word, e.g. electrocute (electricity+ execute);
  • 2) initial part of the word + initial part of the word, e.g. lib-lab (liberal + labour);
  • 3) initial part of the word + full word,
  • e.g. paratroops (parachute + troops);
  • 4) full word + final part of the word,
    • e.g. slimnastics (slim + gymnastics).

Minor Types of Word-formation

  • Acronnymy is the formation of a new word by means of the initial letters of a word or phrase.
  • Acronyms are commonly used for the names of institutions and organizations. No full stops are placed between the letters.

Minor Types of Word-formation

  • All acronyms can be divided into two groups. Acronyms in the first group are often pronounced as series of letters: EEC (European Economic Community), FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), PC (personal computer).
  • Acronyms in the second group are pronounced according to the rules of reading: AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome), NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization).

Minor Types of Word-formation

  • Some words of the second group can be written without capital letters as they are no longer recognized as acronyms: laser (light amplification by stimulated emissions of radiation), radar (radio detection and ranging), jeep (general purpose car).
  • Acronyms can be homonyms as well:
  • MP Member of Parliament and Municipal Police,
  • PC Personal Computer and Politically correct.
