Zusammenfassung:Explores how borrowing and word formation are used together and in competition for naming new concepts in language contact situations Includes case studies from a wide range of European languages, including English, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Czech, Russian, Lithuanian and GreekDraws on data from dialects and minority and heritage languages, demonstrating specific perspectives on borrowing in contrast to word formationExamines historical data from medieval and early modern periods as well as contemporary languagesFormulates generalisations over the case studies in a concluding chapterDrawing on detailed case studies across a range of languages, including English, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Czech, Russian, Lithuanian and Greek, this book examines the different factors that determine the outcome of the interaction between borrowing and word formation.Historically, borrowing has largely been studied from etymological and lexicographical perspectives and word formation has been included in morphology. However, this book focuses on their mutual influence and interaction.

The case studies are framed by an introduction that describes the general background and a conclusion that summarises the main findings
