Abstract

The new disease that appears in December 2019 affects all
spheres of people’s everyday living and functioning. Bearing in
mind that language reflects social phenomena and that lexicon is
the most flexible language segment, new words and phrases
inevitably enter the lexicon on a daily basis. These novelties
generate new problems not only in the lexicon but in other
language segments as well. Thus, this paper addresses the new
words which emerge from the disease presence as well as the
problems caused by their occurrence and use, in regard to the
Macedonian orthography, morphology, syntax and lexicology.
This is a qualitative research that has a descriptive design, and
the corpus consists of numerous articles issued in electronic
newspapers. Analysis and synthesis are the methods used for
processing the data and reaching conclusions. The research
results indicate that the Macedonian language lexicon
undoubtedly is enriched with new words. However, this
extension in the lexicon has plenty of orthographic,
morphological and syntactic implications related to the
Macedonian language norm.
