Loan Rendering Definition

noun

LOAN RENDERING An approximate translation of a formally foreign term ; a “partial calque " but not in the formal sense of a loanblend but in a qualitative sense of vaguely corresponding to foreign elements; a loan resulting in the formation of a new lexeme but is a loan only in the sense of Anlehnung , having a foreign inspiration, but not in the sense of Entlehnung , having a direct correspondence (which would make a loan translation ), or at least more of the former than the latter if one reckons that there is no clear line, but with discernible enough a connection to a foreign lexeme not to be a loan creation which last does not correspond to formally foreign elements at all but is a direct invention to render a concept.
