Abstract

The current discourse expounds on the phenomenon of a rising lexicon in the English language, which has been observed to have emerged in response to significant occurrences in spheres of social, political, economic, scientific, and technological advancements. The persistent advancements in technology and science, coupled with the ongoing growth of cultural, spiritual, and domestic domains of society, can serve as a formidable impetus for the consistent augmentation of the English lexicon. This paper endeavors to critically analyze seminal literature pertaining to the topic of neology, neologisms, and their associated word-formation types as a linguistic phenomenon.
