Since the 19th century, with the development of economy, the prosperity of literature and the progress of science and technology, English has absorbed a large number of classical language words (Latin words and Greek words), thus further enriching English vocabulary.
Scientific and technological innovations have led to the emergence of many new words. Between 1800 and 1850, English created a large number of technical terms.
Modern English word-formation not only retains the traditional word-formation form (whole word borrowing or affixing), but also new word-formation forms appear.
