About this document
Word Formation Processes Explained by ScribdTranslations is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes five word formation processes: derivation, composition, parasynthesis, shortening, and acronym. Derivation involves adding prefixes or suffixes to a root, composition combines two or more words, parasynthesis reduces words, shortening removes syllables or letters, and an acronym uses the initials of several words. Each process allows for the creation of new words in different ways.
