Features of Folk Etymology in the Spanish Language in the Framework of Word Formation

Abstract: As in any language, this lexical base is constantly updated, replenished with new units. The process of enriching the lexical fund is commonly called word formation, or word production. This process is inextricably linked with etymology, as with the science that studies the origin of a particular unit. Since the replenishment of the lexical fund is a continuous process, we can talk about the relevance of a given topic. Keywords: word-forming aspect, folk etymology, associative etymology, toponym, hypercorrection.
