Morphology

new + feature

The meaning 'a recently introduced function or characteristic' is directly and compositionally derived from 'new' (recent, novel) + 'feature' (a distinguishing property). This is a straightforward noun phrase following common English and cross‑linguistic patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE meaning.

Etymology

New feature starts from a simple image: think of a product getting a small, useful feature that is new, like a fresh button or tool on your phone. So, it means 'a recently introduced function or part' that makes the product better.
