a new word with a different meaning
Examples:
We need to use fungicide for the newly planted banana
seedlings.

Coinage – the invention of totally new terms. Invented
trade names are typical examples.
Examples:

You need to download this app because it is very useful.
Learn about It

Borrowing – the process of taking words from other
languages
Examples:

She loves to listen to songs of different genres.
I like singing karaoke even though I do not have a good voice.
Learn about It

Compounding – refers to the process of joining two or
more independent words to produce a new form
Examples:
Carlo needs to use a sandpaper smoothen the wood.

Jerry will try a new hairstyle for the party.
Learn about It

Blending – a process of creating a new word by
combining the parts of two different words, usually the

another word of another type (may be a verb)
Examples:
The government needs to bulldoze the cliff.
I need to babysit my younger sister this weekend.
My grandfather was diagnosed with liver cancer.

formed by changing an existing word from one part of
speech to another
Examples:
You should access the website to submit the file.
You should black your hair back.
There is an increase in the number of enrollees.
The rich are blessed with more opportunities.
Learn about It

Acronymy – New words are formed from the initial
letters of a set of words.
Examples:

innovation.

week.
Learn about It

Folk Etymology – refers to the changing of a word or a
phrase over time which results from the replacement of
an unfamiliar form by a more familiar one
Example:
We should bring a hammock for the camping.

Learn about It

word (total reduplication) or part of a word (partial
reduplication)
Examples:
The theater play was a super-duper tearjerker.
I bought a teeny-weeny box for my ring.
I lost my flip-flops on the beach.
