Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes the emergence and linguistic significance of new compounds formed with the prefix neo- in contemporary Polish, especially in the context of socio-political discourse. The study focuses on expressions such as neo-KRS and neosędziowie, which have gained popularity in media and public debate. The author examines how these terms function, their expressive connotations, and how they influence the perception of the described entities. Using corpus-based and media analysis, the article explores the dynamics of linguistic change and the role of neologisms in shaping political narratives.
