Lexicon is frequently conceived of as being limited to the number of entries of a dictionary and thus indicative
of the richness of a national language. These entries are, however, the tip of the iceberg. The input side of
language is the discursive level, site of creation of neonomy, concepts and denominations assigned to these
concepts. Lexicon is thus a tool for providing denominations to society and speech communities. The
denominations are subsequently encoded into the lexicon, enriching it with concepts, whereas the stock of
lexical morphemes is comparatively stable. Moreover, polylexicality is an important feature of lexicon,
generally neglected in general language dictionaries.
