Context |
The degree of distortion would determine whether the neologism was recognizably target-related (few phonemic errors) or abstruse (excessive phonemic errors) and would thus account for ail three subtypes of neologism (Buckingham 1987). If, in fact, all neologisms are created by one mechanism and differentiated by degree of distortion, then excessive phoneme errors might not be necessary for creation of the abstruse subtype.
