Annotation. The theoretical underpinnings and historical evolution of neologisms
in the English language are examined in this article. It illustrates the primary language
theories—structural, etymological, stylistic, and lexicographic—that are used to
investigate neologisms. The study looks at the technological and sociocultural elements
that influence the creation of new lexical units and assesses how they contribute to the
ever-changing English vocabulary. The procedures by which words are formed and the
standards by which neologisms are incorporated into common usage are given special
consideration. According to the article's conclusion, neologisms are a crucial component
of linguistic evolution and a reflection of social change.
