CONTAMINANTS OF THE GERMAN LANGUAGE: SEMANTICS AND PRAGMATICS

This article is devoted to the consideration of one of the productive word-formation models in the modern German language – contamination and the resulting neologisms, classified as non-equivalent vocabulary. This article attempts to find equivalent means of translation of these units in the Russian language, in order to transfer a large amount of information in a concise form. The formation and translation of neologisms that are under consideration appear as a vector linguistic and creative process aimed at the implementation of two discursive functions – gaming and expression of speech communication.
