Nominalization

Definition: Nominalization are nouns made from other parts of speech which help us to express complex ideas, perception, intelligence, epistemology but sometimes it impedes clear communication. It's used by lawyers, bureaucrats,business writers.It is a more formal register and in liguinstic terms this means that it uses more noun groups. Noun groups can be used to specify,describe,classify,and qualify so it can increase the content of our text that is its lexical density.

'Nominalization allows us to get away from the dynamic and real world sequencing that goes with speaking- we organize the text in terms of ideas,reasons,causes,etc.

Nominalization also allows us to pack in more lexical content per sentence'

How to nominalized verbs:

• Use the present participle form of the verb;e.x. 

Informal register: ' He sang his heart out.'
Nominalized version: 'The heartfelt singing...'

Informal register: ' She ran very fast.'
Nominalized version: 'Her fast running...'

• Add suffixes such as: tion- ment- al

frustrate,frustation

organized,organization

argue,argument

govern, government

refuse,refusal

propose,proposal.

Examples:
Informal register: 'I handed my essay in late because my kids got sick.'
Nominalized version: 'The reason for the late submission of my essay was the illness of my children.'

Informal register: 'Because the jobs are more complex, programs to train people will take longer.'
Nominalized version: 'The increased complexity of tasks will lead to the extensión of the training programs.'

Informal register: 'I feel that'closing the gap' is tricky because kids just don't have the feel for talking in the same way as the way academics sometimes talk to each other.'
Nominalized version: 'The challenge of 'closing the gap' is related to students'limited repertoires of academic registers.'

Informal register: ' Writers who overload their sentences with nominalization tend to sound pompous and abstract.'
Nominalized version: 'The proliferation of nominalizations in a discursive formation may be an indication of a tendency towards pomposity and abstraction.'

Informal register: In other words, by transforming verbs into their noun equivalents, students and academics can create complex sentences that are traditionally expected in academic writing. This process is called “nominalization,” a term which was first coined by John Williams in his book Style: Toward Clarity and Grace.

Nominalized version: First coined by John Williams in his book Style: Toward Clarity and Grace, “nominalization” is the term used to describe the transformation of a verb into a noun, thereby creating a complex sentence that satisfies the traditional expectations of academic writing.
