On compound words with component арт- in Bulgarian media language

Abstract

This paper discusses the problem of Bulgarian compound nouns with the component арт-. I would like to draw your attention to several significant features of the compound words in question. It mainly concerns the feature of brevity, the creation of new structures on the basis of a simple model based on analogy as well as the fact that the feature of formal transparency of compounds is accompanied by a large degree of semantic density. At the level of semantic analysis I used the text linguistic approach and emphasized the usefulness of cognitive methods of interpreting the meaning of the discussed type of words. I put an accent on the semantic blur of derivatives used in the language of the mass media out of context.
