FEATURED NEOLOGISM:

Pan Kanapka ‘Mister Sandwich’ – a seller of sandwiches and other types of prepared food, offering his products to company employees directly at their place of work. This phraseology may be inspired by the name of a popular American chain of sandwich bars, i.e., Mister Sandwich. Representatives of the chain also engage in mobile sales.” [Senderska, Joanna, Nazwy osób we współczesnej polszczyźnie (na materiale Obserwatorium Językowego Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego).
