Abstract
Language has been part of human history and vital to the development of cultures and civilizations. The research studied the morphological word formation processes drawn from millennial expressions and how different aspects of language are determined. Fifty (50) Grade 11 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Qualitative data were analyzed, and in addition, twelve (12) participants which included Grade 11 students were interviewed. The use of documentary analysis and non-participant observation were also vital sources of data. Results showed that there are four prominent word formation processes drawn from millennial expressions. These are initialism, clipping, blending and coinage. It was therefore concluded that students use these processes due to limitations in social media technology forms, trend and conveniency. Results also revealed that the use of millennial expressions affect the spelling, grammatical correctness and word choice. Results would lead to the creation of a glossary of terms helpful in teaching English subjects.
