===Nominalization===
{{main|Nominalization}}
Nominalization is a process whereby a word that belongs to another part of speech comes to be used as a noun. This can be a way to create new nouns, or to use other words in ways that resemble nouns. In French and Spanish, for example, adjectives frequently act as nouns referring to people who have the characteristics denoted by the adjective. This sometimes happens in English as well, as in the following examples:

{{block indent|This legislation will have the most impact on the ''poor''.}}
{{block indent|The race is not to the ''swift'', nor the battle to the ''powerful''.}}
{{block indent|The Socialist ''International'' is a worldwide association of political parties.}}
