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.
It is a special case of a type of word formation called clipping. Clipped compounds are common in various slang and jargon vocabularies, [1] but they are not specific to those. Examples in English include sci fi, comp sci, lab tech, and surg tech. A clipped compound word is linguistically a type of blend word.

Inspired by the success of the Universal Dependencies for cross-linguistic annotation of syntactic dependencies, similar efforts have emerged for morphology, e.g., UniMorph [1] and UDer. [2] These feature simple tabular ( tab-separated ) formats with one form in a row, and its derivation (UDer), resp., inflection information (UniMorph):
