Resumen

The last few years have witnessed an upsurge of research on lexical blending (Renner, Maniez y Arnaud, 2012; Renner, 2015; Correia Saavedra, 2016; Balteiro y Bauer, 2019; Wulff y Gries, 2019). This corpus-based study provides a qualitative treatment of splinters non-morphemic word parts that result from the truncation of lexical items that are used recurrently to create new blended words as if they were affixes – from the point of view of Cognitive Linguistics. More specifically, we offer a fine-grained a nalysis of a corpus of 200 splinters (the SplinterCorpus ) gathered from previous works (Warren, 1990; Lehrer, 1998, 2007; Renner, 2007; Correia Saavedra, 2016) and from the Online Cambridge Dictionary by making use of some of the latest developments in cognitive modeling, especially the notion of ‘cognitive operation’ (Ruiz de Mendoza, 2020; Ruiz de Mendoza y Galera, 2014). While some splinters preserve the meaning of the source word from which they are derived, others reinterpret it (Bauer, Beliaeva y Tarasova, 2019; Mattiello, 2019). We focus on the second group and provide a principled account of the motivation underlying the semantic change undergone by the meaning of such splinters in terms of the cognitive operations of expansion and reduction. The evaluative character of metonymy of some of these splinters is also explored.
