Resumo:The main objective of this paper is to study the neological terms that have spread through the media, particularly through newspapers during pandemics in both Spanish and British newspapers. We hypothesize that during the swine flu pandemic in 2009-2010 and the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, a variety of neologisms spread through newspapers. Employing corpus linguistics, we have extracted and analysed forty candidates to become neologisms and we have classified them according to several neologicity criteria.
