Over a hundred<br>complex nouns of this type, employing a politician’s or a public figure’s name as the derivational<br>base, have been culled from online written sources. The coinages under analysis<br>are mostly occasionalisms that are currently used in informal and semi-formal political<br>discourse in Poland. Both their morpho-syntactic and semanto-pragmatic properties are<br>examined. The focus is placed on metonymies and metaphors that motivate the construction<br>of their meaning and enhance their semantic analysability.</p> ER -
