Lothar Lemnitzer brings together and comments on the most striking neologisms of contemporary German, words so recent that they do not yet appear in the Duden dictionary. The terms come from areas such as society, sport, television and food, and are presented with examples and comments showing how new words are created and circulate.
The full subtitle is «Was so (noch) nicht im Duden steht» and the work was first published in 2008 in the Duden publishing house catalogue.
A read for those interested in the evolution of the German language and the formation of new words.
