In linguistics, clipping, also called truncation or shortening, [1] is word formation by removing some segments of an existing word to create a diminutive word or a clipped compound. Clipping differs from abbreviation , which is based on a shortening of the written, rather than the spoken, form of an existing word or phrase.
In phonetics, clipping is the process of shortening the articulation of a phonetic segment, usually a vowel. A clipped vowel is pronounced more quickly than an unclipped vowel and is often also reduced .
Clipping (signal processing), a form of distortion that limits a signal once it exceeds a threshold. Some forms include: Clipping (audio), the clipping of the top and bottom of a sound wave, referred to as "distortion" or "overdrive" Clipping (photography), the clipping of overexposed area by digital cameras and film; Soft clipping
In particular, the suffix -k is commonly used, for example, in askorbinka (from askorbinovaya kislota (i.e., ascorbic acid)). [3] In Japanese, clipped compounds are very commonly used to shorten long, either coined or wholly borrowed, compounds (see also Japanese phonology and transcription into Japanese).
Clipping is a form of distortion that limits a signal once it exceeds a threshold. Clipping may occur when a signal is recorded by a sensor that has constraints on the range of data it can measure, it can occur when a signal is digitized , or it can occur any other time an analog or digital signal is transformed, particularly in the presence of ...
Voltage clipping limits the voltage to a device without affecting the rest of the waveform In electronics , a clipper is a circuit designed to prevent a signal from exceeding a predetermined reference voltage level.

Clipping is a form of waveform distortion that occurs when an amplifier is overdriven and attempts to deliver an output voltage or current beyond its maximum capability. Driving an amplifier into clipping may cause it to output power in excess of its power rating.
