Cognitive linguistics has established itself as a significant research paradigm over the past three decades, yet it has largely overlooked the processes of lexical creation typically explored in word formation studies. This volume marks a pioneering effort to shed light on various aspects of word formation from cognitive perspectives. It features contributions from the 2nd International Cognitive Linguistics Conference of the German Cognitive Linguistics Association, along with selected invited papers from scholars focused on word formation and cognitive linguistics. The collection emphasizes methodological and topical pluralism. Some contributions delve into theoretical discussions, such as recombinance as a model of word formation and taxonomies of word formation processes. Other articles explore interface issues, including the relationships between word formation and phrasal constructions, inflection, and phonology. Most studies examine specific types of word formation—compounding, affixation, and conversion—enhancing our understanding of these processes. Primarily focusing on Germanic languages (Afrikaans, Dutch, English, German, Luxembourgish, and Norwegian), the analyses employ corpus linguistic investigations, psycholinguistic experiments, and computational linguistic applications, alongside introspective reasoning in some cases. Overall, this volume enriches the field of cognitive word formation research and highlights
