The interdisciplinary basis of linguistic hybridization (an analysis of the retro-component in English-language political media texts)

Abstract

the following conclusions. First, there are facilitators that are common to the three sciences, which is probably a consequence of metaphorization as a universal means of term transfer. The common facilitators include discretion of the "parents" and absence of constraints on interaction, a pronounced need for hybridization, emergence of a new property, non-compositionality of the hybrid. Second, there are properties specific to linguistic hybridization. These are the presence of a minimal communicative context and discernable verbalized identities.
