Abstract
This paper is aimed at analysing the specifics of new root affixes (affixoids) in the Russian word-formation system. The study involved the use of descriptive and contextual methods, as well as those of component and lexicographic analysis. The article presents the author’s view on the process of forming the body of neogenic affixoids. According to the author, the increased use of compounding as a means of word formation led to the emergence of a significant number of new affixoids. Among new word-formative elements, proper neologisms and new meanings of the previously existing word-formative elements are distinguished. It is shown that new affixoids are genetically motivated by the English language, and are characterised by bi-functionality and variability in writing. The formation of new affixoids in the Russian language reflects the processes of sociocultural globalization and lexis internationalization.
