"Nominalised" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
Nominalised refers to the process of converting a word, phrase, or clause from a grammatical function to a noun. This can be done through various means, such as adding -ation, -ment, -ity, -ness, etc. The result is a noun that refers to the concept, idea, or action described by the original word or phrase.
For example, the verb "to run" can be nominalised as "running" (e.g., "I've been doing a lot of running lately"), or "to think" can be nominalised as "thinking" (e.g., "my thinking on this matter is quite different").
Nominalisation is often used in academic writing, technical communication, and other forms of formal writing to create abstract nouns that convey complex ideas or concepts. It can also be used to add precision, clarity, and depth to writing, as well as to create a more formal or technical tone.
The word "nomes" is a plural noun that refers to small, usually non-human, mythical or fantastical beings, often depicted as inhabitating a small rural or wilderness area. They are sometimes depicted as being isolated, primitive, and living in harmony with nature. The term "nomes" is often used in fantasy fiction, especially in the works of Scottish author William Hope Hodgson, who wrote the story "The House on the Borderland".
