English Lexicogenesis
Miller, D. Gary (Professor Emeritus, Professor Emeritus, University of Florida)
This book investigates the processes by which novel words in English are coined, adopted, and adapted, such as affixation, compounding, and clipping. It looks at the interaction between word-forming operations, expressive morphology, and language play, and will appeal to all those interested in English etymology, lexicography, and morphology.
