Summary/Abstract: The article is concerned with the loss of a derivational element. The phenomena of this kind are often difficult to explain: a productive element with a seemingly transparent and highly-demanded meaning disappears without being replacedby any other and without leaving any correlates for a dedicated expression of its meaning. The case in point is the Russian verb razronjat', a prefixal perfective, conveying distributive and multi-object values (though the main dictionaries of the 20th century do not reflect multi-object contexts).
