functional shift ----a change in the grammatical function of a word, as in the use of the noun input as a verb or the noun fun as an adjective.
back-formation-----A new word created by removing an affix from an already existing word, as vacuum clean from vacuum cleaner, or by removing what is mistakenly thought to be an affix, as pea from the earlier English plural pease.
