John Lyons on Derivation - Dictionary of Arguments
I 198 Derivation/Tradition/Linguistics/Lyons: Word derivation. Methods to extract words from existing words (or "roots") e.g. triumphal (adjective) from triumph (nouns) etc. I 199 The reason why a section on derivation was added to classical grammars in the 19th century is due to the influence of the newly accessible treatises on Sanskrit, which recently led to an interest in historical language development (diachronic). It was recognized that flexion and derivation have much in common. Classical grammar: distinguished very precisely between flexion and derivation: E.g., singing: is only a syntactically conditioned form of the word sing. Against this: E.g., singer: is an own word with its own set of forms and its own paradigm. ((s) Because it itself is changeable, e.g. plural and declination can be formed). >Words, >Grammar, >Syntax, >Language._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
