Beschreibung
Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,3, LMU Munich (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Morphology and word formation, language: English, abstract: A comparative view of approaches in non-morphemic word-formation; researching clipping, blends, acronyms and abbreviations, reduplication, back-formation as well as borderline cases that cannot be assigned clearly. This paper delves into the commonalities and differences of non-morphemic word-formation in Schmid's "English morphology and word-formation" and Plag's "Word-formation in English". Non-morphemic word-formation is a linguistic field full of exceptions and the odd one out in terms of morphology. It is a particularly interesting case in point as it does not rely on morphemic building blocks and shows some peculiarities that can be viewed from various angles.
