STRUCTURAL AND SEMANTIC FEATURES OF HEADLINE NEOLOGISMS CREATED BY UNPRODUCTIVE WAYS OF WORD FORMATION (BASED ON THE LANGUAGE OF MODERN INTERNET PUBLICATIONS)

Abstract

The article deals with the structural and semantic features of neologisms, created by unproductive way of word formation, in the headlines of today’s Internet media. Linguistic analysis reveals the following non-productive ways of word formation. These are analogy, univerbation, rederivation, “telescope pattern”, contamination and borrowing. Neologism analogy is defi ned as the appearance of new words by distributing a certain word creative model. The analogy is a great source for expressiveness of innovations but there occur much formal irregularities, especially in patterns of derivatives forms. Univerbation is defined as phenomenon of secondary nomination dealing with the transformation of steady two-word name into synonymous word-univerb, mostly stylistically marked. This derivational method reveals the semantic equivalence between the basic word combination and the derivative. Very often in journalism phenomenon of univerbation has much to do with rederivation which is the rejection of initial or final morphemes of a word resembling by its phonemic structure the derivative word. Contamination is a union of speech (nominative) units or parts thereof on the basis of structural, functional or associational proximity which leads to the creation of a new language (nominative) unit.
