Abstract

This article examines the lexical and semantic features of French neologisms and the ways of their creation. The research is conducted on the basis of neologisms included in the Le Petit Robert dictionary in 2023-2024. The main purpose of the work is to study the word-formation models by which new vocabulary units are created in the modern French language, and to identify the most productive ones.
