“…79-84) and interlinguistic neologisms (Bermúdez Fernández 1997, pp. 14-15)their status as neological Anglicisms cannot be questioned since, besides their English origin, which is evident, the terms attested in our study satisfy, as made clear throughout our work, most of the different criteria that define neologisms postulated in the literature (Rey 1976;Cabré Castellví 1993;Estornell Pons 2009;Méndez Santos 2011;Vega Moreno and Llopart Saumell 2017). First, the social networks under analysis, except for blog, which is a digital reality born at the end of the twentieth century (1997), are discoveries of the first decade of the twenty-first century.…”

“…As their reason of being is clearly due to a "need-feeling motive", in Anttila's (1989, p. 155) words, they are necessary and inevitable Anglicisms which, in opposition to gratuitous or superfluous Anglicisms, display a referential function (Alfaro 1948, p. 118;Edwards 1994, p. 76;Urrutia Cárdenas 2001, p. 13;Rodríguez González 2008, pp. 265-66;Balteiro 2011, p. 27;Guerrero Ramos 2013, p. 122;Schmidt and Diemer 2015, p. 15;Vega Moreno andLlopart Saumell 2017, pp. 1441-42) 6 .…”

There is no doubt that the Internet, where English is ubiquitous, has revolutionized our way of life. Socially, it has opened frontiers to such an extent that nowadays human beings can be permanently connected, no matter the distance between them, in virtual encounters where social networks play a crucial role. Linguistically, on the other hand, it has created a new global language which combines properties of written and oral speech. The Internet’s lexical level, in particular, is described as extremely innovative, creative and playful since it is full of neologisms, many of which are Anglicisms, coined to name the new realities constantly brought along with the evolution of the digital world. In order to demonstrate that social networks are indeed the source of a wide array of creative and playful neological Anglicisms in Peninsular Spanish, we have carried out a corpus-based analysis of the names of five current social and interactive forms of Internet communication in two contemporary Spanish corpora; specifically, that of the indirect social network generically known as the blog and those of the direct social networks Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and WhatsApp. Our study focuses, specifically, on four facets of these neological Anglicisms: (i) their date of introduction into the language; (ii) their frequency of occurrence; (iii) their diverse spellings; and (iv) finally, the different word-formation processes they enter.

“…Hence, the perception of novelty depends on several factors, which can be grouped into chronological (Estopà 2015), temporal (Rey 1976;Lavale-Ortiz 2019), or diachronic (Sánchez Manzanares 2013); use (Vega and Llopart-Saumell 2017); documentation (Vega and Llopart-Saumell 2017); linguistics (Estopà 2015) or morphosemantics; pragmatics (Sablayrolles 2000;Estopà 2015); cognitive (Schmid 2008;Estopà 2015;Hohenhaus 2006;Sanmartín 2016); sociolinguistics (Sablayrolles 2000); and enunciative (Sablayrolles 2000) or discursives (Sablayrolles 2000;.…”

“…Now, the unit may present a high number of occurrences, but if these occurrences take place during a specific period and then the unit falls into disuse, speakers may perceive it as novel because they do not remember it. On the contrary, the diffusion (Sablayrolles 2000;Vega and Llopart-Saumell 2017) and stability of use (Antunes 2012, p. 217;Estopà 2015) of a word, which are calculated by the number of occurrences and years of documentation (Estopà 2009), respectively, decrease the perception of neologicity.…”

Are Stylistic Neologisms More Neological? A Corpus-Based Study of Lexical Innovations of Women and Men

To deepen on the study of the concept of neologicity, an exhaustive review of the literature was carried out. Once the different parameters related to this concept were isolated, we realized that some of them were also used to determine the communicative function of neologisms. For this reason, first, we correlated the objective criteria to classify neologisms as prototypical of the denominative or the stylistic function with the parameters related to the neological quality. Second, we defined new criteria, both linguistic and chronological, to broaden the scope of our analysis. Afterwards, all the criteria were applied to a corpus of neologisms from newspaper articles and journalistic blogs in Spanish written by women and men. The results confirmed that neologisms with stylistic features tend to be more neological than denominative neologisms. Consequently, they are usually less frequent lexical units used in general or informal contexts. In addition, they tend to be the result of unproductive word formation rules that might contain subjective linguistic components and also tend to be more recent.
