Forgive me. I meant totally original words. Most new words are either
borrowings or deformations of old words. The rest would arise due to
factors of which I haven't learned. Your title says it all. :))

An unused word could be altered for time or interstellar travel, but I'm
not sure there is one. After all, people still walk and ride horses and
run and jog and use almost every form of travel ever invented (as far as
we know).
