nyansförskjutning
Nyansförskjutning refers to a subtle shift in meaning or connotation of a word or phrase over time. It is a natural linguistic phenomenon that occurs as language evolves and is influenced by societal changes, cultural trends, and new contexts of use. This shift is not always drastic but can alter how a word is perceived or understood, moving it from a neutral term to one with positive or negative associations, or vice versa.
One common cause of nyansförskjutning is the association of a word with specific events or social movements.
Identifying nyansförskjutning often requires careful attention to historical usage and contemporary understanding. Dictionaries and linguistic studies
