what is unnormative lexicon?

Answer 1

This is where one language borrows words from the other, without using any sort of translation.

English has many examples. For example, we use the term "Schadenfreude" (from German), meaning a state of joy (Freude) derived from the misery (Schaden) of others.

[EDITED TO ADD: We Anglophones have the French to credit for the names of many foods and beverages. For example, creme brullee (a custard), sauvignon blanc (a white wine), and many others.]

A more common (though much more general) term for this phenomenon is "loan word". Specifically, the use of unnormative lexicon uses a loan word that is NOT translated. The English "antibody", loaned from the German "Antikörper", is a translation and is thus normative, and not unnormative. However, Schadenfreude (see above) is unnormative.

hope this helps
