lexicalize
Lexicalize is the process of incorporating a concept, idea or phrase into a language's vocabulary as a single term or entity. This could involve creating a new word, or using an existing word with a new meaning, making it an integral part of the language and its lexicon. It often occurs when a frequently used phrase, compound or complex semantic structure becomes a simple, atomic unit within the language.
