    Connecting element → 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
    Linking elements can connect the constituents of a compound. Analysing them requires distinguishing linking elements from inflectional forms and stem variants.

  2. R-191 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Connecting element → 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
    Whether a linking element counts as a morpheme depends on whether a distinct meaning or function can be established. The connection raises that question for analysis.

  3. R-192 · Subject neighbour · directed

    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.
