Online Spanish Neologisms Word Bank

Story flagged by: Maria Kopnitsky

It is no coincidence the title of this post contains a neologism in  (the word “online”); in fact, the word is the heading to this post (indeed, the word “post” is yet another neologism in !) precisely because of its widespread presence in  spoken in recent years. The increasing use of  in  and the dissemination of words borrowed from other languages ​​led to the creation of a work bank of these terms by the Cervantes Institute.

This is not the first post in which we have reviewed the tools that the Cervantes Institute makes available to users. The Neologisms Word Bank allows for using a search engine that explores lists neologisms made ​​between 2004 and 2010. Each term (in Spanish, or also, mainly thanks to collaboration with the Universitat Pompeu Fabra, in ) is accompanied by an example of its use in context, any relevant grammatical or typographical information, and a description of its etymology.

"Online" not a neologism, IMHO Jan 23, 2014

Interesting post and resource. However, I would not qualify "online" as a neologism "in Spanish". It is rather a borrowing (préstamo), however widely it may (and is) used. To be a neologism it should be incorporated into the Spanish language and it should follow the Spanish grammar rules. Even a new meaning of an old word can be termed a neologism, but a term in English used in Spanish remains a borrowed term. IMHO.
