		In linguistics, derivation is the process of creating new lexemes from other lexemes, for example, by adding a derivational affix.
		In that, derivation differs from compounding, by which free morphemes are combined (lawsuit, Latin professor).
		Some linguists consider that when a word's syntactic category is changed without any change of form, a null morpheme is being affixed.

	Course Description
		This course is a survey of general linguistics, emphasizing the theory and methodology of the traditional central areas of the field—phonetics, phonology, morphology, and syntax—with special concentration on phonological and syntactic theories and analytical techniques.
		Linguistics, whether conceived of as a taxonomic or theoretical enterprise, must give attention to the study of particular grammars, rather than relying exclusively on broad generalizations from a narrow empirical base.
		The course begins with a discussion of an approach to linguistics within which lexical meaning can be explained, and it continues with the assignment of lexical meaning to linguistic units and an exploration of the implications of lexical spectrum intersection theory.

		In contrast, derivation makes a word with a clearly different meaning: such as "unhappy" or "happiness", both from "happy".
		But as the example of "morpheme" reveals, bound morphemes may become unbound ones: "morph" has been adopted in linguistics for the phonological realization of a morpheme, and the verb "morph" was coined to describe a type of visual effect done with computers.
		The Semitic languages show an extreme of fusion, in that word roots are represented by fixed consonants, usually three, and their inflection and derivation is done with internal vowel patterns as well as affixes.

	Morphology (linguistics) - an introduction - Citizendium
		In this way, morphology is the branch of linguistics that studies such patterns of word-formation across and within languages, and attempts to explicate formal rules reflective of the knowledge of the speakers of those languages.
		Derivation involves affixing bound (non-independent) forms to existing lexemes, whereby the addition of the affix derives a new lexeme.
		One example of derivation is clear in this case: the word independent is derived from the word dependent by prefixing it with the derivational prefix in-, while dependent itself is derived from the verb depend.

	Sign-up
		In the 20 th century, linguistics continued to use etymology to learn how meanings change but they came to consider that the meaning of a form without reference to its history if it is to be understood at all.
		Etymology is a branch of linguistics that deals with the origin and development of words and with comparison of similar words, or cognates, in different languages of the same language group.
		In its relation to other sub divisions of linguistics, etymology stands closest to phonology: in fact, before the development of phonetic laws, no scientific or systematic means of tracing the derivation of words existed.

		Students familiar with syntactic reasoning from Linguistics 305 (Introduction to Syntax) have the basic tools to understand a much wider range of phenomena than is considered in 305.
		Linguistics 471 builds on this knowledge by extending our linguistic analysis and theorizing to the details of structures in English as well as to the detailed study of syntactic structures in other languages.
		The goal of the course, however, is to expand our understanding of the reach of linguistic theorizing in three specific areas, some of which are best studied by comparison with other languages.

		Suffixation is a process by which a suffix is a morpheme that is added to a word to create another word by derivation “Felon” thus becomes a new word by adding ‘y’ felony (noun) and an adjective by adding ‘ous’ “felonious”.
		The inflection is the change of form that words undergo to mark such distinctions as those of case, gender, number, tense, mood, voice, comparison, person form, suffix or element involved in such variation.

	HLW: Derivation: Derivational Morphology
		When there is derivational morphology, a Speaker or Hearer of the language must know not only what the grammatical morpheme is and how it combines with the lexical morpheme but also the grammatical convention for how the meaning of the more complex word is derived from the meanings of the two components.
		Like the derivation of verbs from adjectives (or adjectives from verbs) the agent noun derivation of one sort or another is quite common in the world's languages.
		In the next I'll describe some of the possibilities for derivational morphology on Lingala verbs Like other languages in the Bantu family, Lingala allows a number of different verbs to be derived from a single verb root.

	Lexical Conceptual Structure and Spanish Derivation
		However, there are cases, such as the anomalous derivative in (10), where even though the most recently attached affix (re-) is a non-category-changing prefix, the next affix to attach (un-) is sensitive to that prefix (re-), and not to the head (hook).
		An important conclusion that derives from the notion of head and the mechanism of Head Percolation is that they give rise to the prediction that the features of the nonhead (the base) do not overrule the features of the head (the affix) in the output.
		Among derivational prefixes there does not appear to be a division between content and function items as in derivational suffixation, since all derivational prefixes appear to contribute objective meaning to the derivation.

		Arguably the best kind of argument for a derivational system is one involving representations that are destroyed as the derivation unfolds, and do not make it to the final representation in any direct form.
		At that stage in the derivation, (7b) is what we would have obtained from (7a): (7) a.
		However, in a radically derivational system of the sort argued for by Epstein and Seely (1999) or Uriagereka (1999), all this means is that chains must be 'cashed out' right before they become non-uniform.

	On Linguistics and Politics, by Noam Chomsky
		QUESTION: With your 1991 paper on economy of derivation and representation, a discussion has been generated as to what extent the language faculty is contingent on the operation of cognitive principles of economy.
		As the principles of the language faculty have become more refined, the derivation of linguistic expressions, though determined by fixed principles and parametric choices, becomes increasingly intricate; properties of expressions are not directly stated by rules specific to them but derived from an interplay of invariant principles.
		The notions external and internal derive from an approach to the study of language that seems to me dubious from the start, an approach that seeks to distinguish linguistic from psychological evidence.

		He argues that the derivation of syntactic objects needs two different notions of phases: the lexical selection phase and the derivational phase (or convergent phase).
		It means that in Atkinson’s derivational phase, the set of derivational phases can be extended depending on the point at which convergence is achieved in the derivation.
		However, if numerations are provided in the derivation based on the lexical selection phase, and if Spell-out is applied based on convergence everywhere, not just in the phases, we do not need two notions of phases.
