Abstrakt

This paper examines a selection of contemporary socio-political neologisms in French, with the primary objective of identifying their possible neologistic equivalents in Spanish and Slovak. To achieve this aim, we analyse data drawn from three comparable corpora of present-day language available in Sketch Engine: frTenTen23, esTenTen23, and skTenTen23. These linguistic resources provide valuable evidence about the frequency, contextual usage, and collocational behaviour of recently coined lexical units. By contrasting the corpus data, we aim to observe how neologisms originating in French can be adapted, translated, or calqued in Spanish and Slovak. We hypothesize that the identification of neologistic equivalents will be easier in Spanish than in Slovak due to their closer morphological and lexical proximity to French. Furthermore, the study explores productive word-formation suffixes and their cross-linguistic correspondences. The findings are expected to contribute to research on lexical innovation and have practical applications in French–Spanish, French–Slovak, and Spanish–Slovak translation studies.
