Abstract
This research is intended to wade through all the spheres of how English is enriched with new vocabulary words. Increasing vocabulary is possibly realised through the word-formation processes. The process of word formation implies many devices which are listed and explained in the second section. Each device of forming new words is dealt with separately. All word formation devices except that one of borrowing are done within the very language, here English, whereas borrowing is always achieved by importing words from other languages. The reason behind electing this subject is to expose the readers and, especially, the learners of English to a new material necessary in their study. The researchers are keen to forward the subject in a total way including all information crucial to create successful results
