Summary/Abstract: This article examines the Academic Dictionary of Contemporary Czech, focusing on the incorporation of selected neologisms, which often mirror emerging societal developments. Neologisms, as linguistic innovations, offer a glimpse into the evolving nature of language, often inspired by technological advancements, cultural shifts, and societal trends. The dictionary entries published in March 2024 as a special supplement to the previously released a–ch entries provide detailed information on pronunciation, grammar, meaning, and usage of these newly coined lexemes.
