Facultad de Filosofía y Letras K1 Rowling, J. K. - Lengua AB All languages are partially created through some word-formation processes and the English language is included in them. These processes can act alone or combined between them, and they get the creation of new words which begin to belong to the lexicon. This essay is focused on these processes, it organizes them according to their morphological function and it shows a brief description about them. In addition, this essay is primarily based on an analysis elaborated through a strict search of all invented words found in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (Rowling, 2004). These new terms will follow some of the processes or even they will have a combination between some of them. This analysis will demonstrate the capacity of the English language to create a new lexicon.
