This article deals with the semantic diversification of a word family of compound nouns with the central motivating element -scape (a bound stem/final combining form/affixoid originating in the noun landscape). The research on a sample of 180 -scape compounds revealed a rapid growth of the family size in contemporary English and identified 15 senses of the combining form -scape. The openness and very considerable size of the family drives the widening of its meaning spectrum and leads to a semantic shift towards a more abstract and metaphorical level.
