Portmanteau Words – What are portmanteau words? Portmanteau is something where there are two meanings packed up in one word.
Yep, you read it right.
To make it more clear, here’s an example of portmanteau words – Smog is a portmanteau word (Smoke and Fog). And, Motel is a portmanteau word (Motor and Hotel) Thus nowadays, similarly like the slangs, these combinations of two words has become quite popular on the internet.
Yeah, you might think that it’s so ridiculous, but let me tell you that while you keep thinking that these so-called mixing of two words is ridiculous; there are people out there who are using them as modern slangs. So, now you know that they are really “important” to know about, I think you must use ‘em while communicating with others.
