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.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Hardcover, vi + 252 pages, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This volume examines lexical borrowing from onomasiological, usage-based, methodological, and phraseological perspectives. The studies investigate how words are borrowed between languages, the factors that determine their success, and the semantic changes they undergo after adoption. The chapters explore a range of topics including the borrowability of English catchphrases in Dutch, the integration and frequency of Maori loanwords in New Zealand English, gender assignment in bilingual noun phrases, the use of English loanwords in Portuguese and Nordic contexts, and experimental approaches to how loanwords are perceived in job advertisements. Emphasis is placed on empirical, corpus-driven, and cognitive approaches to language contact. The book is academically significant for bridging onomasiology with usage-based linguistics, offering new methodological tools for analysing borrowability and the real-world integration of loanwords across different linguistic communities. -- Contents: Introduction: Onomasiological, Methodological and Phraseological Perspectives on Lexical Borrowing; A Usage-based Approach to Borrowability / Ad Backus; What Makes a Catchphrase Catchy?
