👉 In linguistics and computational linguistics, a term that describes a type of word formation where each word is constructed by taking a previous one in some way (e.g., adding an initial letter or a consonant before it) is called a "primrosed". Primrosed words are often used in conjunction with the word "primrose" to refer to a flower known for its beauty and fragrance, which is also used as a metaphorical term for a person who has many good qualities.
