English term

the "blending" process

English to Persian (Farsi) Social Sciences Linguistics Terminology
Hi

Courtesy of Mr Ahmad Kabiri:
"Actually the term is coined under "blending" process, so the letter آ is omitted."

This is of very great interest to me - I'd love to find out more about this "blending" process, so I need to start by learning the Persian term. I wonder which body in Iran coins terms such as this.

Best

Dear Simon:
This term is used in Linguistics and is one of the word-formation processes. A classic example of blending in English is Brunch. I have no idea about your Persian Language background; however, if you are interested in word-formation processes in the Persian Language you may take a look at the books given below:
1) An Introduction to Morphology, by دكتر ويدا شقاقي:

2) the Persian chapters of English Morphology Plus Word-Formation Processes in English & Persian, by دكتر غلامرضا تجويدي: http://www.samt.ac.ir/asp09/bookdetail.asp?IdBook=952

The Academy of the Persian Language & Literature is the official body to preside over the correct usage of the language.
