Back-formation is either the process of creating a new lexeme (less precisely, a new "word") by removing actual or supposed affixes, or to the neologism formed by such a process. Back-formations are shortened words created from longer words, thus back-formations may be viewed as a sub-type of clipping. Each back-formation in this list is followed by the original word from which it was back-formed. ==A== * ''aborigine'' as a mistaken singular for ''aborigines'' (the correct English singular is ''aboriginal'', the Latin has no singular) * ''accrete'' from ''accretion'' (root: ''accrescere'')〔(【引用サイトリンク】year=2009 )〕 * ''acculturate'' from ''acculturation''〔 * ''addict'' from ''addicted'' (root: ''addicere'')〔(【引用サイトリンク】year=2009 )〕 * ''admix'' from ''admixt''〔 * ''adsorb'' from ''adsorption''〔 * ''adolesce'' from ''adolescence''〔 * ''adulate'' from ''adulation'' * ''advect'' from ''advection''〔 * ''aesthete'' from ''aesthetic''〔 * ''aggress'' from ''aggression'' * ''air-condition'' from ''air conditioning''〔 * ''anticline'' from ''anticlinal'' * ''antipode'' from ''antipodes'' (non-standard) * ''attrit'' from ''attrition''〔 * ''auto-destruct'' from ''auto-destruction'' (cf.
