The passive vocabulary also includes neologisms - new words that have not yet become familiar and everyday names for the corresponding objects and concepts.

The lexicon of the language is constantly replenished, however, over time, new words are mastered and transferred from a passive vocabulary to an active one. And as soon as a new word begins to be used often, it becomes familiar, it is assimilated and stylistically no longer stands out against the background of the rest of the vocabulary. Therefore, the new words mastered by the language cannot be included in the composition of neologisms. Thus, the term "neologism" narrows and concretizes the concept of "new word": when highlighting new words, only the time of their appearance in the language is taken into account, while referring words to neologisms emphasizes their special stylistic properties associated with the perception of these words as unusual names.

Each era enriches the language with new lexical units. They can be grouped according to the time of their appearance: new words of the Peter's era; new words introduced by Karamzin (Lomonosov, Radishchev, Belinsky, and other writers), new words of the beginning of the 20th century, the first years of the revolution, etc. During periods of the most active socio-political and cultural life of the country, the influx of new words especially increases.

The classifications of neologisms are based on various criteria for their identification and evaluation.

1. Depending on the way of appearance, lexical neologisms are distinguished, which are created according to productive models or borrowed from other languages, and semantic, which arise as a result of the assignment of new meanings to already known words.

Among the lexical neologisms according to the derivational feature, words produced using suffixes can be distinguished (land yang e), prefixes (about west), as well as suffix-prefix formations ( at moons ni e, races dock), names created by word composition ( lunar rover, hydraulic weightlessness), compound words ( riot police, special forces., CIS, GKChP) and abbreviated words ( pom., deputy.).

Abbreviation (abbreviation) in modern Russian has become one of the most common ways to create neologisms. However, it should be borne in mind that not all neologisms-abbreviations are perceived adequately by speakers. For example, the word ilon- an abbreviation based on the name and surname of the inventor - Ivan Losev... Unlike ordinary abbreviations, such abbreviations are not directly related to semantic relations with the phrases underlying their formation.

Semantic neologisms include, for example, words such as bush in the meaning - "combination of enterprises", signal- "reporting something undesirable to the administrative authorities", etc.

2. Depending on the conditions of creation, neologisms should be divided into general linguistic ones, which appeared together with a new concept or new reality, and individual author's ones, introduced into use by specific authors. The overwhelming majority of neologisms belong to the first group; so, the neologisms that appeared at the beginning of the century collective farm, Komsomol, five-year plan and many others are characterized by usability.

The second group of neologisms includes, for example, the word created by V. Mayakovsky sitting... Having crossed the boundaries of individual author's use, having become the property of the language, these words have now joined the active vocabulary. The language also mastered the terms introduced by M.V. Lomonosov long ago constellation, full moon, attraction; first used by N.M. Karamzin's words industry, future and etc.

The so-called occasionalisms (Latin occasionalis random) - lexical units, the emergence of which is due to a certain context, also belong to this group of neologisms. All the above neologisms are linguistic, they have become the property of the Russian lexicon, recorded in dictionaries, like any lexical unit, with all the meanings assigned to them.

Occasional neologisms are words formed by writers and publicists according to the word-formation models existing in the language and used only once in a certain work - high-noise Dubrovy(NS.), v heavy snake hair(Bl.), fiery elderberry twigs(Colored). Such neologisms can be authored not only by writers; we ourselves, without noticing it, often come up with words in case (like opener, unpack, overdrive). Children especially create a lot of casualisms: I AM namakaron; See how naluzhil rain; I'm not a baby anymore, but big and under.

To distinguish between artistic and literary occasional and purely everyday ones, which are not a fact of artistic speech, the former are called individual stylistic. If everyday occasionalisms usually arise in oral speech, involuntarily, without being fixed anywhere, then individual-stylistic ones are the result of a conscious creative process, they are imprinted on the pages of literary works and perform a certain stylistic function in them.

In terms of their artistic significance, individual stylistic neologisms are similar to metaphors: at the heart of their creation is the same desire to discover new semantic facets in the word, to create an expressive image with economical speech means. As well as the brightest, freshest metaphors, individual stylistic neologisms are original and inimitable. At the same time, the writer does not set himself the task of putting into use the words he invented. The purpose of these words is different - to serve as an expressive means in the context of one, specific work.

In rare cases, such neologisms can be repeated, but at the same time they are still not reproduced, but "reborn". For example, A. Blok in his poem "On the Islands" (1909) used the occasional definition snow-capped: Again snow covered columns, Elagin bridge and two fires... In the poem by A. Akhmatova "October 9, 1913" (1915) we read: Now I realized that there is no need for words, snow covered branches are light... However, no one would argue that such a coincidence indicates the dependence of the style of one poet on another, much less imitation, the repetition of a "poetic find."

3. Depending on the purpose of creating new words, their purpose in speech, all neologisms can be divided into nominative and stylistic. The former perform a purely nominative function in the language, the latter give a figurative characterization of objects that already have names.

Nominative neologisms include, for example: futurology, feminization, pre-perestroika(period), pluralism... The emergence of nominative neologisms is dictated by the needs of the development of society, advances in science and technology. These neologisms arise as names for new concepts. Nominative neologisms usually do not have synonyms, although competing names ( cosmonaut - astronaut), one of which, as a rule, subsequently displaces the other. The bulk of nominative neologisms are highly specialized terms that constantly replenish scientific vocabulary and, over time, may become commonly used; Wed: lunar rover, dock, cosmodrome.

Stylistic neologisms are created as figurative names for already known objects, phenomena pioneer, atomic city, auto city, starship. Stylistic neologisms have synonyms that are inferior to them in intensity of expressive coloring; Wed: starship - spaceship ... However, the frequent use of these neologisms in speech translates them into an active vocabulary, neutralizes their stylistic coloring. For example, the word health resort, that came into the language as a stylistic neologism, is now perceived as a neutral synonym for words sanatorium, rest house.

Before proceeding to consider the topic of the course work itself, it is still worth clarifying what neologisms are and what they are.

Using the definition taken from the encyclopedia "Russian language", we can say that a neologism (from the Greek neos - "new", logos - "word") is a word or turn of speech created to designate a new object or express a new concept.

In modern Russian, neologisms are divided into linguistic and authorial, or individual-stylistic 2.

Linguistic neologisms are created mainly to designate a new object, concept. They are included in the passive vocabulary and are noted in the dictionaries of the Russian language 3. A neologism is a word as long as it feels fresh. So, at one time the word "cosmodrome" was a neologism. Now this word is included in the lexical composition of the modern Russian language. And this, in turn, suggests that if a concept is relevant and the word that calls it is well connected with other words, then the word soon ceases to be a neologism.

There are a lot of examples of linguistic neologisms in the Russian press. Take at least a borrowed word from English rating(a digital indicator of an assessment of someone's activity, the popularity of someone, something in relation to others, usually based on the results of public polls or on the opinion of experts). "In November rating Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, according to the All-Russian Center for the Study of Public Opinion (VTsIOM), has finally made a significant leap up, reaching the level of 13-17% "//" Russian Newsweek "from 27.11.2006.

However, if we delve deeper into the classification of new words, then among the linguistic neologisms one can distinguish lexical and semantic ones.

TO lexical neologisms are those words that are newly formed according to the models available in the language or are borrowed from other languages ​​4.

An example of lexical neologism formed according to the models available in the language is the word video smuggling(illegal secret duplication and distribution of video products that violate the copyright of its creators). “Counterfeit video products have not decreased in our markets. Against, video smuggling flourishes. " // "Russian Newsweek" from 27.11.2006. As we can see, the word is formed on Russian soil by adding the root video and the word smuggling.

Example of borrowed lexical neologism - technical term decoder(device for decrypting digital encoded data; synchronous decoder). “The whole problem is that today most of the MMDS television networks are not encrypted, so illegal immigrants may not buy decoders, - and therefore - not to pay the subscription fee ”. // "Russian Newsweek" from 20.11.2006.

This neologism was borrowed due to the appearance of a new device, the name of which did not exist before.

It is worth noting that most of the neologisms we found are just lexical.

Semantic neologisms Are previously known words that, in the light of recent linguistic changes, have acquired new meanings 5. Such processes are not uncommon for the Russian language, so we have encountered quite a few semantic neologisms in the publications under consideration.

An excellent example of this kind of neologism is the word mac.... V Explanatory dictionary Russian language edited by S.I. Ozhegova and N.Yu. The Swedish defines it as "a coat or raincoat made of rubberized fabric." This is the original meaning of the word mac. Now it has acquired another meaning (a computer from Apple Computer, not compatible with IBM) and has become a neologism. “At the awards ceremony it was especially noted that Apple has gone all the way of the development of computer music from its very origins, starting with the release of the Macintosh computer, and is the leading creator ...” // “Russian Newsweek” dated 4.12.2006.

Word catalog(from the Greek katalogos - "list") also acquired additional meaning. In the Big Academic Dictionary, this word has a meaning:

    A list of any items (books, exhibits, goods), compiled in a specific order.

    Library catalog - a list of printed works available in the library. In Russian libraries, they differ in purpose (reader and service catalogs), method of grouping (alphabetical, systematic, subject catalogs), types of printed works, etc.

Now this word also denotes a directory in computer science. "Its own small LCD screen displays information about the fill level of the drive, about the processes in progress, about the state of the battery, and even about the structure of the stored directories." // "Russian Newsweek" dated January 22, 2007.

Copyright, individual-stylistic neologisms are created by writers, poets to give imagery to an artistic text 6. Neologisms of this type are "attached" to the context, have an author. By the very purpose of their creation, they are called upon to preserve unusualness and freshness. Author's neologisms formed according to productive models are called potential words.

Unfortunately, we have not been able to find a single author's neologism in the edition under consideration. This is due to the fact that modern magazines rarely resort to artistic means of imparting imagery. In dictionaries, of course, individual stylistic neologisms are also not recorded. Therefore, as an example of the author's neologism, we will cite a classic example from Pushkin: Half-lord, half-merchant ...

Occasionalisms (from the Latin occasionalis - "random") - these are the author's neologisms, created according to unusual models. They do not exist outside of a specific context 7.

“This is not exactly a piece of Moscow. It - Luzhzona". // "Russian Newsweek" from 27.11.2006.

Also in this work we will consider updated words, which can also be attributed to neologisms. We will talk about the actualization of concepts or realities below.

Once upon a time, the appearance of the first radios, telephones and televisions shocked the whole world. It was truly awesome! New phenomena required names. Thus, neologisms entered into Russian speech, which hitherto were not and could not be in it.

Today, the words "telephone" and "TV" can hardly be classified as "neologisms". Examples of modern new words relate to other realities. “Computer”, “cellular”, “mobile” were also neologisms quite recently. But they too soon left the pedestal of novelty. Today, every kid easily operates with these words.

"Promoter", "restyling", "rebranding", "nanotechnology", "franchising" - these words are not yet understood and known to everyone. Therefore, it is still possible to define them in the group of "neologisms". Examples of these new words are temporary. After all, very soon people will get used to them and will use them in everyday speech.

Although this often happens: neologisms do not take root in Russian speech! Examples of such rejection are words that are inconvenient in pronunciation, dissonant. And although they are used in speech, many try to avoid letter combinations that are pressing on the ear. This happened with the word "copy", which was formed from "photocopy". And everything seems to be correct, but it is not very pleasant to hear.

Basically, the above words were borrowed by the Russian language from foreigners, these are the so-called “neologisms that came from other languages”. Examples of this phenomenon may also have a different way of appearing. For example, there are new author's words, individual stylistic ones.

This process is called word-formation derivation. That is, someone, using well-known morphemes and generally accepted word models, forms a new, more brightly colored word in the stylistic aspect. Examples of neologisms invented by writers are Gogol's adjective "green-haired", published by Mayakovsky "sickle", "hammer", "hulk". True, today these words can rather be called archaisms: both the sickle and the hammer have disappeared from the country's coat of arms, and the image of a "green-haired birch" is present in every second poem.

There are several ways to convert foreign words into Russian. It can be a complete tracing of a word, for example, "internet", "computer", "skype". The ending is simply added to these words in speech.

Sometimes the process of transliteration is traced in the language. That is, the word is, as it were, assimilated under the influence of the pronunciation rules of the language that accepts it. This happened with the Latin word "intonatio", which in Russian began to sound like "intonation".

Today it has become very fashionable to "joke" the language, composing your own words, mixing foreign words and Russian or morphemes. Quite a ridiculous neologism often turns out. Examples are the expressions "face on the table", "skype", "geymanulsya".

Most literary scholars believe that excessive contamination of the Russian language harms it rather than helps it develop. Indeed, very many phenomena can be called in Russian. This is especially true of new names of professions and positions, which, if you think about it, already exist.

The world is changing rapidly, and our speech is changing along with it. Many words are forgotten and become archaisms, and we, in pursuit of modernity, use foreign words - first because of the technical language, and then in everyday life. There is nothing wrong with that, if it is in moderation. But do not forget that not only life creates language, but it also shapes our life.

I will now remind you of this measure and will try to cite the translation of words that are often heard in different spheres of politics, economics and everyday life. There were a lot of borrowed words in the past, including from Latin, French and English. Since the early nineties, it has become especially fashionable to use catchy foreign words to give more meaning where you most want it - in business.

Phraseologisms

Neologisms are, of course, not only borrowed words, but also "domestic" word forms, which appeared both from abbreviations and from the composition of new ones (mainly by poets and writers) in sound or semantic similarity. Phraseologisms are linguistic constructions more high level(therefore the phrase) - they are just as incomprehensible in meaning as neologisms, but they sound quite natural, and to understand them you need to know how they were formed.

Tryn grass- the grass is podzabornaya, i.e. useless, indifferent weed to everyone

Pour in on the first number- In the old school, students were flogged every week, regardless of who is right or wrong. And if the "mentor" overdoes it, then such a flogging was enough for a long time, until the first day of the next month.

Goal like a falcon- Terribly poor, beggar. The bird has nothing to do with it, in fact, the "falcon" is an old military battering weapon. It was a completely smooth ("naked") cast iron bar, fixed on chains. Nothing extra!

Kazan orphan- Pretending to be unhappy, offended, helpless to pity someone. After the conquest of Kazan by Ivan the Terrible, Mirza (Tatar princes) turned out to be subjects of the Russian tsar and tried to beg him all sorts of indulgences, complaining about their orphanhood and bitter fate.

Unlucky man- In the old days in Russia, not only the road was called "the way", but also various positions at the prince's court. The falconer's way is in charge of princely hunting, the hunter's way is hound hunting, the horseman's way is in charge of carriages and horses. Boyars by hook or by crook tried to get the way from the prince - a position. And who did not succeed, they were scorned about those: a good-for-nothing person.

Inside out- In the times of Ivan the Terrible, the guilty boyar was put backwards on a horse in clothes turned inside out and in this form, disgraced, they were driven around the city under the whistle and ridicule of the street crowd.

Lead by the nose- To deceive, promising and not fulfilling the promise. Gypsies took bears to fairs by a ring threaded through their noses and forced them, poor fellows, to do different tricks, deceiving them with the promise of handouts.

Scapegoat- The man who was blamed for others. The ancient Jews had a rite of absolution. The priest laid both hands on the head of a living goat, thereby, as it were, shifting the sins of the entire people onto it. After that, the goat was driven out into the desert. Many, many years have passed, and the rite no longer exists, but the expression still lives on.

Sharpen the fringes- Balusters (balusters) are chiseled curly posts of the railing at the porch. Only a true master could make such beauty. Probably, at first, "sharpening balusters" meant conducting an elegant, bizarre, ornate (like balusters) conversation. But by our time there were fewer and fewer skilled craftsmen to conduct such a conversation. So this expression began to denote idle chatter.

Nick down- "Nose" was called a plaque, or a tag for notes. In the distant past, illiterate people always carried with them such boards and sticks, with the help of which all kinds of notes or notches were made for memory.

Break a leg- This expression arose among hunters and was based on the superstitious idea that with a direct desire (both down and feather), the results of a hunt can be jinxed. A feather in the language of hunters means a bird, down means animals.

Beat the thumbs up- For a long time, artisans made spoons, cups and other utensils from wood. To cut out a spoon, it was necessary to chop off a piece of wood from a log - a baklush. Apprentices were entrusted with preparing thumbs: it was an easy, trifling matter that did not require special skill. Cooking such chocks was called "beat the thumbs." Hence, from the mockery of the foremen at the auxiliary workers - "baklushniki", our saying began.

After the rain on Thursday- To the pagan god of thunder and lightning of the Russians, Perun was dedicated one of the days of the week - Thursday, to which prayers were offered for rain in a drought. Prayers often remained in vain, and the saying began to be applied to everything that does not know when it will be fulfilled.
