  1. R-116 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Derivation → Affix

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Derivation can create new words by adding affixes. Affixes can also mark inflection, so their presence alone does not identify the process as derivation.

    Derivation → Morpheme

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Derivation forms a new lexeme from a base. Morphemes help us analyse what is added or altered, including cases where the change involves more than joining two units.

    Derivation → Conversion

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Conversion changes a word’s category without an overt derivational affix. Whether it counts as derivation depends on the model of word formation.

  4. R-119 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Derivation → Compound

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Derivation and compounding are both forms of word formation. Derivation typically combines a base with a derivational element. Compounding combines lexical constituents. Borderline cases require further criteria.

    Inflection → Derivation

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Inflection produces grammatical forms of one lexeme. Derivation typically produces new lexemes. The boundary depends on the criteria used and cannot be drawn from word form alone.

    Connecting element → Derivation

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Linking elements and derivational elements can look similar. They occur in different word-formation contexts. A linking element inside a compound therefore needs its own analysis.

    Compound → Derivation

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A compound combines lexical constituents. Derivation forms a new lexeme by a derivational process. Borderline cases require criteria suited to the language.

    Conversion → Derivation

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Conversion is commonly analysed as a change of word class with no overt derivational affix. Whether it counts as a kind of derivation or a separate process depends on the word-formation model.
    Evidence basis

    Reduplication → Derivation

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Reduplication can create new lexical forms and thereby serve a derivational function. The status of a particular use depends on its function in the language.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Derivation can add members to a word family. Membership requires evidence of a formal and historical relation as well as attention to meaning.
