Publisher's Synopsis

The present monograph lays the groundwork for a revived study of syntactic blending by emphasizing its frequency in everyday speech and providing considerable raw material for analysis. Attention is also drawn to the possibility of idioms arising from successive changes and to the relevance of blends for evaluating the various main theories of general linguistics.
