Beschreibung
The book presents current trends as well as the historical development of theoretical concepts in the study of neologisms and sociolects, including parallels and paradoxes in their dictionary processing, i.e., the question of the mutual relationship between neography and sociolectography. Using French linguistic material, it outlines possibilities for approaching the constantly evolving expressions of generational or group cohesion through the lens of sociolexicology. This defined sociolinguistics of innovation primarily includes the modeling of neologism diffusion, that is, the search for reasons and methods for the spread of new words in society. Case studies, among other things, point to the possibilities of extracting lexical innovations from generationally characteristic sociolects and testing them using a time-lapse questionnaire method. Attention is also given to rap lyrics, which are a unique source of information about the semantic development of identity neologisms.
