dc.description.abstract | New words (also called neologisms) enter the Bulgarian language under the
influence of two processes: internationalization and nationalization. The first is
expressed in increasing the international vocabulary, and the second – in preserving
the specifics of the language (domestication). It is the second one that is of
interest for this research – how new words enter the Bulgarian language and by
“how” we mean their adaptation to the already established linguistic paradigms.
The study is narrowed down to the sphere in which informal speech usually
prevails, because that is where we expect the most linguistic innovation – the
home-related sphere and more specifically the names of foods that are used in it.
The study was performed by monitoring 10 selected words in the following
three sources: the Bulgarian PoS Annotated Corpus, Bulgarian National
Reference Corpus (BNRC), and Google. | en_US |
