Abstract
The present study offers a cognitive linguistic account of selected recent derivatives in
-izm/-yzm, such as jakizm, cejrowskizm, erdoganizm and petruizm(y)pl. Over a hundred
complex nouns of this type, employing a politician’s or a public figure’s name as the derivational
base, have been culled from online written sources. The coinages under analysis
are mostly occasionalisms that are currently used in informal and semi-formal political
discourse in Poland. Both their morpho-syntactic and semanto-pragmatic properties are
examined. The focus is placed on metonymies and metaphors that motivate the construction
of their meaning and enhance their semantic analysability.
