For alpha blending, see Alpha compositing.In linguistics, a blend is a word formed from parts of two other words. These parts are sometimes, but not always, morphemes.Contentshide 1 Linguistics o 1.1 Formation 1.1.1 Blending of two roots 1.1.2 Lexical Selection 2 Use 3 See also 4 References edit LinguisticsBlends deal with the action of abridging and then combining various lexemes to form a new word. However, the process of defining which words are true blends and which are not is more complicated. The difficulty comes in determine which parts of a new word are recoverable (its root can be distinguished).1There are many types of blends, based on how they are formed. Algeo, a linguist, proposed dividing blends into three groups2:1. Phonemic Overlap: a syllable or part of a syllable is shared between two words 2. Clipping: the shortening of two words and then compounding them 3. Phenomic Overlap and Clipping: shortening of two words to a shared syllable and then compounding However, classification of types of blends is not standard among all linguists.edit FormationMost blends are formed by one of the following methods:1. The beginning of one word is added to the end of the other (see portmanteau word. For example, brunch is a blend of breakfast and lunch. One of the two may be a whole word if it is short. This is the most common method of blending. A monosyllabic word is divided into its onset and rime if necessary. A blend of this type typically has the same number of syllables as the second word. o broccoli (3) + cauliflower (4) broccoflower (4) o breakfast (2) + lunch (1) brunch (1) o camera (3) + recorder (3) camcorder (3) o education (4) + entertainment (4) edutainment (4) o information (4) + commercial (3) infomercial (4, exception) o motor (2) + hotel (2) motel (2) o simultaneous (5) + broadcast (2) simulcast (3, exception) o smoke (1) + fog (1) smog (1) o spoon (1) + fork (1) spork (1) o stagnation (3) + inflation (3) stagflation (3) 2. The beginnings of two words are combined. For example, cyborg is a blend of cybernetic and organism. 3. Two words are blended around a common sequence of sounds. For example, the word Californication, from a song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, is a blend of California and fornication. 4. Multiple sounds from two component words are blended, while mostly preserving the sounds order. Poet Lewis Carroll was well known for these kinds of blends. An example of this is the word slithy, a blend of lithe and slimy. This method is difficult to achieve and is considered a sign of Carrolls verbal wit. When two words are combined in their entirety, the result is considered a compound word rather than a blend. For example, bagpipe is a compound, not a blend, of bag and pipe.edit Blending of two rootsBlending can also apply to roots rather than words, for instance in Israeli Hebrew. Israeli dakhpr bulldozer hybridizes (Mishnaic Hebrew)Israeli dp push and (Biblical Hebrew)Israeli pr dig. Israeli shiltt zapping, surfing the channels, flipping through the channels derives from (i) (Hebrew)Israeli shalt remote control, an ellipsis like English remote (but using the noun instead) of the (widely known) compound shalt rakhk cf. the Academy of the Hebrew Languages shalt rkhak; and (ii) (Hebrew)Israeli shitt wandering, vagrancy. Israeli shiltt was introduced by the Academy of the Hebrew Language in . 1996. Synchronically, it might appear to result from reduplication of the final consonant of shalt remote control. Another example of blending which has also been explained as mere reduplication is Israeli gakhlilt fire-fly, glow-fly, Lampyris. This coinage by Hayyim Nahman Bialik blends (Hebrew)Israeli gakhlet burning coal with (Hebrew)Israeli lyla night. Compare this with the unblended khakhlilt (black) redstart, Phnicurus ()Israeli ksef money and the (International/Hebrew)Israeli agentive suffix - -r. The second is that it is a quasi-portmanteau word which blends ksef money and (Hebrew)Israeli spr count. Israeli Hebrew kaspr started as a brand name but soon entered the common language. Even if the second analysis is the correct one, the final syllable - -r apparently facilitated nativization since it was regarded as the Hebrew suffix - -r (probably of Persian pedigree), which usually refers to craftsmen and professionals, for instance as in Mendele Mocher Sforims coinage smartutr rag-dealer.5edit Lexical SelectionBlending may occur with an error in lexical selection, the process by which a speaker uses his semantic knowledge to choose words. Lewis Carrolls explanation, which gave rise to the use of portmanteau for such combinations, was:Humpty Dumptys theory, of two meanings packed into one word like a portmanteau, seems to me the right explanation for all. For instance, take the two words fuming and furious. Make up your mind that you will say both words . you will say frumious.6The errors are based on similarity of meanings, rather than phonological similarities, and the morphemes or phonemes stay in the same position within the syllable7.edit UseSome languages, like Japanese, encourage the shortening and merging of borrowed foreign words (as in gairaigo), because they are long or difficult to pronounce in the target language. For example, karaoke, a combination of the Japanese word kara (meaning empty) and the clipped form oke of the English loanword orchestra (J. kesutora ), is a Japanese blend that has entered the English language. (From the article gairaigo.)Many corporate brand names, trademarks, and initiatives, as well as names of corporations and organizations themselves, are blends. For example, Wiktionary, one of Wikipedias sister projects, is a blend of wiki and dictionary. Also, Nabisco is a blend of the initial syllables of National Biscuit Company.edit See alsoLook up Blend inWiktionary, the free dictionary.
