No, William Shakespeare Did Not Really Invent 1,700 English Words. One of the many pieces of popular lore attributed to Shakespeare (and there are a lot) is that he invented up to 1,700 of the words we use today.

HEY MATE !

GOOD MORNING !

Answer:

Some of Shakespeare’s most vivid word-creations turn up in The Tempest. My favourite is Trinculo being described as reeling ripe – so drunk he’s staggering about. But that has to compete with such evocative adjectival compounds as cloud-capped (towers), strong-based (promontory) and pole-clipped (vineyard), or the noun compound demi-puppets, or the verb compound weather-fend (defend against the weather). These feel like the product of a linguistically creative mind...........

hope it helps !
