Institute of English Studies Wrocław UniversityAbstrakt
The present article scrutinises the linguistic research on word-formation processes in Tok
Pisin - the major pidgin language in Papua New Guinea. In the first part of important facts about the very language - Tok Pisin - are given. Then, the article presents selected
word-formation processes that are employed in Tok Pisin. The attention is focused only on compounding,
conversion and reduplication. Each word formation mechanism discussed in this paper
is illustrated by a number of examples. The examples are derived from the corpus of 17 news items
written in Tok Pisin and obtained from the official Internet website of ABC Radio Australia,
Australian Broadcasting Corporation in November 2004 (http://www.abc.net.au/ra/).
