Hybrid formation in word formation

In word formation, hybrid formation is understood to be complex words whose components come from at least two different languages. Words that are particularly common in German grammar are those where some come from the German hereditary vocabulary and some from a foreign language . The well-known German theory of word formation by Fleischer & Barz (1995) dedicates an entire chapter to these phenomena under the title hybridization . An example of a hybrid formation is the word Naivling , in which the foreign word naive appears combined with the German derivative morphem -ling . In scientific and technical specialist vocabulary, hybrid formations from ancient Greek and Latin tribes are particularly common.

Hybrid formation in dialectology

In dialectology, hybrid formation is understood to mean forms that come about as hypercorrection when dialect speakers try to adapt to the standard language and create false analogies in the process. As an example, it is given that in a dialect in which the word gut is used as jut , the adaptation leads to pronouncing good in standard language, but then this phonetic substitution is carried over to other examples where it is incorrect in standard language. So it can come to gunge instead of boy . This is documented by König for the name Gung .
