Did Shakespeare invent word?

Yes, he is credited with creating 1700 new words. A lot of these were using a word as a new part of speech.

The number of words Shakespeare invented is over 40% of that number.Yet fact does not always support the legend. Shakespeare was a great writer of English. Perhaps he was even the greatest.
