Title: | From Brexit to Bregret | Authors: | Lalić-Krstin, Gordana Silaški N. |
Issue Date: | 1-Jun-2018 | Journal: | English Today | Abstract: | © 2017 Cambridge University Press. The UK's June 2016 decision to withdraw from the European Union, popularly referred to as Brexit, has had a major political, financial and economic impact worldwide. However, the impact was also linguistic as this event has generated a myriad of neologisms in English, such as breferendum, brexiteer, Brexitsphere, regrexit or Brexitology. The aim of the present study is to give a general overview of these new words, to establish the predominant word-formational patterns as well as to point out the creativity and speed with which speakers of English have reacted linguistically to this change in the socio-political context. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/1571 | ISSN: | 02660784 | DOI: | 10.1017/S0266078417000530 |
