Гибридная неология и ее проблематика в современном французском языке

Abstract

The study of hybrids in morphological-lexical plan primarily involves clarification of the criteria which allow to distinguish between this category and differentiate it among similar lexical units. Some authors often identify two types of lexical units in derivational terms: hybrids and adapted loan-words. Of course, a hybrid structure is a type of borrowing, but, in our opinion, these two categories are based on various relative derivational mechanisms, and, accordingly, must differ from each other. Considering all aspects of the formation of hybrids, including the facts, in our work we use such definition of the term hybrid: so, hybrid is derivational, word-formative or complex word in the language, composed with the word-formative elements (stems and affixes) of different etymology. In our study, we consider the formation of hybrids and their place in the modern French language within the framework of neologization processes.
