Abstract
The paper addresses the issue of word formation of author’s neologisms in modern English. The aim of the study is to identify the most frequent word-formation elements of an individual author’s style and the features of their translation into Russian. Scientific novelty lies in the fact that the researcher was able to consider the individual author’s methods of neologism formation and note the most fitting variants of their translation into Russian during a comparative-contrastive analysis. As a result, the most frequent word-formation elements of the individual author’s style and the features of their translation into Russian have been identified.
