On the role of creativity in the formation of new complex words
This article presents the results of a large-scale interdisciplinary project aimed at a corroboration of the role of creativity in the way university undergraduates (N = 309) coin new complex words. Specifically, the tendency towards economy of expression, preferred by a speaker, and the tendency towards semantic transparency, preferred by a listener, were examined in the broader context of the creative potential of an individual, understood as d…

Methodological Issues in Studying Derivation
This chapter looks at the ways in which derivation may be studied, concentrating on what constitutes adequate data on which to base theoretical claims. The author assesses the pros and cons of various ways of generating data, including self-generated data, data from dictionaries and grammars, data obtained by fieldwork, data mined from large-scale corpora, and data generated by experimental methods. It is argued that there are perils in relying s…
Evaluative Derivation
Nilo-Saharan
Niger-Congo
This chapter provides an overview of the derivational processes involving the major lexical categories (nouns and verbs) found in the Niger-Congo languages that have relatively well maintained subsystems whose reconstruction is crucial for the hypothesis of a genetic relationship between the language families grouped in the Niger-Congo phylum: noun classification and verb extensions. Typical Niger-Congo derivational systems are characterized by t…
Areal Tendencies in Derivation
This chapter discusses the question of universals in derivational morphology, an issue that has been paid little attention. First, methodological questions are raised, including some of the obstacles in looking for universals of derivation. The next section reviews some of the past proposals for universals of derivation. The final section assesses some of these proposed universals in light of the material assembled in this volume.
Experimental and Psycholinguistic Approaches
This chapter provides a critical overview of experimental and computational research on the processing and representation of derived words. It begins with an introductory section addressing methodological issues: The pros and cons of various popular experimental tasks, issues with respect to the selection of materials, as well as the relevance of experimental research for morphological theory. The main section reviews two opposing classes of theo…
Universals in Derivation
Derivation in a Social Context
While linguistic factors which affect the productivity of word-formation processes and rules have been extensively studied, it comes as a surprise that hardly any attention has been paid to sociolinguistic factors (age, gender, education, profession, language background) that affect either the formation or the interpretation of complex words. As a result, there are only a few publications dealing with the social aspects of derivational morphology…
Uto-Aztecan
Derivation and Function Words
Pama-Nyungan
Australia provides an important study case for how people coin terms for new concepts, since the 1788 invasion resulted in many Pama-Nyungan speech communities rapidly developing hundreds of new terms. The presence of only two major word-classes in most Pama-Nyungan languages leads to the most common category-changing processes being those creating verbs and nominals. The fact that grammatical relations are expressed by case suffixes contributes …

Stress in compounds
The paper deals with the role of stress in distinguishing between compounds and phrases. An experimental laboratory research aims (a) to examine the nature of stress in N + N constructions in terms of its relative value, i.e., in relation to the values measured in neighbouring syllables; (b) to compare precise laboratory data with expectations of native speakers; (c) to compare precise laboratory measurement data with those obtained from native s…
On the meaning predictability of novel context-free converted naming units
In the field of predictability, the effort of both morphologists and psycholinguists has been primarily concentrated on primary compounds. Little attention has been paid to the meaning predictability of converted naming units. This article discusses some aspects of a theory of predictability which is related to an onomasiological theory of word formation, and points out the specific features of meaning predictability of converted naming units. Th…
Onomasiological Approach to Word-Formation
Handbook of Word-Formation
This volume, intended both for advanced students and scholars of linguistics, traces the many strands of study in the field of word formation that have developed since the seminal work of Marchand and Lees in the 1960s. In mapping the state of the art in the field of word formation, it avoids a biased approach by presenting different, but mutually complementary frameworks within which research into word formation has taken place. It covers the hi…

On the Theory of Neologisms and Nonce-formations
This article outlines an onomasiological theory of neologisms and nonce-formations. First, a theoretical background is presented, and then the topic is discussed with regard to P. Hohenhaus' approach to nonce-formations in order to highlight the advantages of the theory proposed. It is distinguished between neologisms and nonce-formations and postulated that the 'oddity' of the latter should be sought for in the interplay between language, on the…

Beheading the Word? Please, Stop the Execution
The paper deals with one of the central topics of any word-formation theory, the problem of the headedness of complex words. A brief outline of the most influential views of the topic is followed by the delimitation of the basic features of head. Arguments are given in favour of an affix-pased approach to headedness, based on an onomasiological theory of word-formation. It is maintained that the conceptually identified onomasiological base can fu…
