* Corresponding author: laurkul@yandex.ru
The article considers the origin of the word-building formant –gate and the change of its morphological status from a splinter into an affix (a suffix). The article describes the dynamics of its conceptual senses and the actual language content in the 70s, 80s, 90s of the last century and at the beginning of the XXI century and shows its cultural conditionality upon the events of the corresponding periods. Particular attention is paid to the differences in the conceptual component of this sign in the American and British linguistic cultures. The predominance of the ludic function of the suffix over its informative function in recent years in the mass media is emphasized.
