Summary/Abstract: In the Serbo-Croat language possessive adjectives derived from surnames with a final -ski appear with the ending -skov (e. g. Crnjanskov) and -skijev (e. g. Čomskijev). Such adjectives have been condemned as non-standard. The author claims that they fallow the principles of Serbo-Croat word formation and that their widespread use is a result of creative response to new communicative demands, which also need to be taken into account in language codification.
