The New Words
Description
- The new words are like the old words but they are not the old words.
- The new words are built on the old words.
- The new words take their meaning from the old words while, at the same time, retaining some of the history of the old words used in their creation.
This gives the new words a substance that would otherwise not be possible.
- The new words are not for everybody.
- The new words can often be used as almost any part of speech.
- The new words often have multiple meanings.
Rules for the New Words
- New words are almost always the combination of two existing words.
- Each new word retains the meaning (at least in part) of the two words it is created from.
- The meaning of a new word can fairly reliably guessed at after figuring out the base words.
- Some of the new worlds combine English words with words from a foreign language.
