English words like other languages change all the time. People need new words for new ideas and inventions. Different words come into use and older words are used in a new way. Here are some ways to change.
English words can change by borrowing words from other languages. The word “tomato” was from Mexico, and “tea” came from China. Now new words are made by joining two words together. “Weekend” and “cookbook” are examples. A latest one “brunch” comes from breakfast and lunch. Do you have brunch every day? Sometimes new words are shorter forms(形式) of the longer words. For example, the word “photo” was from “photograph” by cutting off the end of the longer words. The names of people and products(产品) can also become new words. Our food “sandwich” was from a man called Sandwich.
Can you find any other examples for each of these ways to make new words?
