A blend is a word formed by combining parts of two or more words to create a new term, often reflecting the meanings of the original words. Examples include "brunch," which merges "breakfast" and "lunch," and "smog," a combination of "smoke" and "fog." Blends are commonly used in everyday language and can often convey a specific concept or idea succinctly.

Blend words, or portmanteaus, are created by combining parts of two or more words. Examples include "brunch" (breakfast + lunch), "smog" (smoke + fog), "motel" (motor + hotel), "spork" (spoon + fork), and "infomercial" (information + commercial). Other notable blends are "glamping" (glamorous + camping), "ginormous" (gigantic + enormous), and "frenemy" (friend + enemy). These creative combinations reflect language evolution and cultural trends.
I'm not 100% sure and am happy to be corrected, but this is my understanding of it: Blends are combinations of consonants where you can still hear the two separate sounds, eg. br, cr, pl. This seems counterintuitive to me, as 'blend' implies that you mixing something together so that it is indistinguishable, but apparently that's what a blend is. Digraphs are where two letters are used to represent a single sound - sh, th, wh, ch.
