GOING DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE OF WORDSMITHERY – Evelina Mezalina Graur

The present article revisits two basic linguistic models and links them to the onomasiological model of word formation. The first section of the articles focusses on the main tenets of Štekauer’s model of research into English word-formation and points to some of its advantages. In the second part of the article, we absolutize the principle of ‘linguistic need’ in an attempt to organize an eclectic collection of linguistic facts, attitudes and new coinages.
