Blended words combine the meanings of two words into one new word. Some blended words are so commonly used that we don't even realize that they are actually made up of two words which have been blended. Here are some examples of blended words:
breakfast + lunch = brunch fourteen + nights = fortnight gleam + shimmer = glimmer motor + hotel = motel of + the + clock = o'clock smoke + fog = smog
