HIERARCHICZNOŚĆ W OPISIE SŁOWOTWÓRCZYM – WYBRANE PROBLEMY
HIERARCHY IN DERIVATOLOGICAL DESCRIPTION – SELECTED PROBLEMS

Summary/Abstract: This article presents the selected problems to do with the description of hierarchical relations in the area of word-formation. Hierarchy as a form of categorizing the linguistic reality, reduced to the word-formation framework, delimits two larger thematic areas related to the polysemy of the very term of word-formation in Polish. The fi rst concerns the selection of topics and their respective ordering of the individual word-formation mechanisms described in derivatological research, while the second involves the implementation of hierarchies and hierarchical meanings in the investigated language. This paper mainly focuses on the fi rst aspect that concerns the issue of hierarchy in Polish word-formation descriptions.
