Abstract
The general aim of this paper was to analyse the compounds that William Shakespeare used in his most important tragedy, “Hamlet”. Compounding is a morphological process that creates new words through combining more than one root. In English there are more types of compounds such as: compound nouns, compound adjectives, compound verbs, blends, acronyms, canonical or non-canonical compounds and endocentric, exocentric or copulative compounds. In his works, Shakespeare imaginatively utilized different types, but mostly adjectival and nominal compounds. Using these structures, he enriched his language and provided interesting wordplay, but he also portrayed his characters’ emotional and psychological state, which can be observed in the persona of Hamlet. In this text, Shakespeare mostly used noun compounds, either a combination of two nouns, noun and adjective or noun and verb in past or present participle. Also, it is important to note the use of exocentric metaphorical compounds which contribute to the uniqueness of the text.
Abstract (croatian)
Glavni cilj ovog rada bio je analizirati složenice koje je William Shakespeare koristio u svojoj najvažnijoj tragediji, Hamletu. Slaganje je morfološki process kojim se stvaraju nove riječi kombiniranjem više od jednog korijena. U engleskom imamo više tipova složenica kao što su: imenske složenice, pridjevske složenice, glagolske složenice, mješavine, akronimi, složenice s kanonske ili nekanonske složenice, te endocentrične, egzocentrične i kopulativne složenice. U svojim djelima, Shakespeare je maštovito koristio različite tipove, ali najviše pridjevne i imenske složenice. Koristeći ove strukture, obogatio je svoj jezik i priuštio zanimljivu igru riječi, ali je isto tako pokazao psihičko i emocionalno stanje svojih likova, što možemo primjetiti kroz Hamletov lik. U ovom tekstu, Shakespeare većinom koristi imenske složenice, kombinaciju dvije imenice, imenice i pridjeva ili imenice i glagola u prošlom ili sadašnjem participu. Također, bitno je naglasiti korištenje egzocentričnih metaforičkih složenica koje doprinose jedinstvenosti teksta.
