Hybridism is the process of forming composite words from the stems of different languages. When a prefix and suffix is added to an original word of another language, the new word, thus formed, is called a hybridism. In the english language, the principle of new hybridism is found operative in the formation of new words by the combination of English and French, English and Latin, and English, French and Scandinavian and so on. ex- Fr. Eng.: beauty full=beautiful, art less=artless. Eng. Fr.:mile age=mileage, drink able=drinkable.
