Nazwy własne jako podstawa kontaminacji (na materiale prasowym)

Abstract

The subject of structural and semantic analysis in this article is contamination motivated by proper names, for example, Liliputin, Chimeryka, Budawood, Schetynesku, svenomenalny, putinokracja, tuskalizm, selected from Polish press texts. Contamination forms are presented here as forms with non‑traditional, surprising structure, destroying established word formation principles, and a meaning which is built as a resultant of the meanings of output components. In a situation where proper names are the basis of contamination, the process of determining the semantics of these derivatives depends on connotative content, which is the source of widely understood features of individual objects resulting from the participation of proper names in culture.
