To observe this fact, we analyzed speech extracts from the column Entreoucido por a, from the magazine Revista O Globo. As the basis of our reflection, we used the studies of Alves (1990) and Barbosa (1998) about neologism. Through the studies of Borba(1990) on lexicografy and Martinet (1971) on language economy, we discussed polissemy and the productivity of the semantic neology process. |
