  1. lexicalisation

    Lexicalisation is the process by which a concept, idea or function becomes a single unit of language or a word. This process may involve the creation of a new term or the use of an existing one in a new way. This phenomenon is essential in language development and expansion. It helps to simplify language and improve communication efficiency by encapsulating complex thoughts or ideas into digestible words or phrases.

  1. Lexicalisation

    In psycholinguistics, lexicalisation is the process of going from meaning to sound in speech production. The most widely accepted model, speech production, in which an underlying concept is converted into a word, is at least a two-stage process. First, the semantic form is converted into a lemma, which is an abstract form specified for semantic and syntactic information, but not for phonological information. The next stage is the lexeme, which is phonologically specified. Some recent work has challenged this model, suggesting for example that there is no lemma stage, and that syntactic information is retrieved in the semantic and phonological stages.
