Frontmatter -- Table of contents -- Introduction: Onomasiological, methodological and phraseological perspectives on lexical borrowing -- A usage-based approach to borrowability -- What makes a catchphrase catchy? Possible determinants in the borrowability of English catchphrases in Dutch -- Formal variance and semantic changes in borrowing: Integrating semasiology and onomasiology -- Measuring and comparing the use and success of loanwords in Portugal and Brazil: A corpus-based and concept-based sociolectometrical approach -- Comparing the usage of Māori loans in spoken and written New Zealand English: A case study of Maori, Pakeha, and Kiwi -- English loanwords and their counterparts in Dutch job advertisements: An experimental study in association overlap -- On the variation of gender in nominal language mixings -- Linguistic globalization: Experiences from the Nordic laboratory -- Index
Summary: This volume aims to broaden the focus of existing loanword research, which has mainly been conducted from a systemic and structuralist perspective. The eight studies in this volume introduce onomasiological, phraseological, and methodological innovations to the study of lexical borrowing. These new perspectives significantly enhance our understanding of lexical borrowing and provide new insights into contact-induced variation and change.
