the uniqueness of English blending words
Today is the anniversary of the opening of the Chunnel, the tunnel that
runs under the English Channel connecting France and England. In 1994,
the 31 mile Chunnel was formally opened in a ribbon cutting ceremony by
France's President Mitterrand and the Queen of England.
It took eight years to complete the Chunnel, but its name is consistent with a linguistic phenomenon that raged throughout the 20th century, and it doesn't look like there is a light at the end of the tunnel this century. The phenomenon is blending words, as in taking two words: channel and tunnel, and blending them into a single word: Chunnel.
