On semantic diffusion in journalistic texts, using the example of selected Polish compounds where the first element is foreign The article focuses on the signs of semantic diffusion in word formation in the context of the indeterminate nature of many Polish compounds in which the first element is foreign, such as those with the component e-, euro-, or eco-. Derivatives are investigated in terms of their context, i.e. emphasis is put on their updated meaning in specific uses in journalistic texts. The phenomenon is analysed in connection with the pragmatic aspect of word formation in the language of the mass media.
