Nonce word
A nonce word (also called an occasionalism) is a lexeme created for a single occasion to solve an immediate problem of communication.〔(Cambridge Dictionaries Online - Nonce Word ) 2011. Retrieved 6 November 2012.〕〔''The Cambridge Encyclopedia of The English Language''. Ed. David Crystal. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1995. p. 132. ISBN 0521401798〕 The term is used because such a word is created "for the nonce".〔Crystal, 1995, p. 455.〕 All nonce words are also neologisms.〔Malmkjaer, Kirsten. (Ed.) (2006) ''The Linguistics Encyclopedia''. eBook edition. London & New York: Routledge, p. 601. ISBN 0-203-43286-X〕 Some nonce words have a meaning and may become an established part of the language, while others are essentially meaningless and disposable and are useful for exactly that reason, for instance in child language testing. The term ''nonce word'' was apparently the creation of James Murray, the influential editor of the ''Oxford English Dictionary''. ==In advertising and literature== Nonce words are often created as part of advertising campaigns or in fiction. A poem by Seamus Heaney entitled "Nonce Words" is included in his collection ''District and Circle''.
