This paper investigates the discourse pragmatic features of novel evaluative blends in English. Bringing together relevant approaches in Natural Morphology, psycholinguistics and pragmatics, we identify four categories on the basis of lexico-semantic and discourse-pragmatic features: referential blends, referential blends that can take on an evaluative meaning, blends which express a relatively more rational evaluation, and, fourth, strongly evaluative blends.

Abstract
This paper investigates the discourse pragmatic features of novel evaluative blends in English. Bringing together relevant approaches in Natural Morphology, psycholinguistics and pragmatics, we identify four categories on the basis of lexico-semantic and discourse-pragmatic features: referential blends, referential blends that can take on an evaluative meaning, blends which express a relatively more rational evaluation, and, fourth, strongly evaluative blends.
