Abstract
Transformation is the expression of the same linguistic content using alternative structures, it is seen as an abstracted mechanism of linguistic expression. The transformation is accomplished through sentence-phrase- composition stages which are characterized by different degrees of abstraction.The generating patterns of transformation of a sentence into a word-combination are subordinate word-combinations which transform from communicative into nominal units (free and fixed combinations). Fixed combinations are formed by the corresponding displacement of the syntactic position of a free pattern or by means of the elipsis of the components. Patterns of compound and derivative words are in their turn characterized by various degrees of abstraction. A suffix has a higher degree of abstraction than a component of a compound word. The patterns of compound words are characte-rized by the existence of final components and they come in a variety of constructions: verb-stems, nominal components, and verb-components. Derivational patterns are characterized from two perspectives: prefixal and suffixal. In the process of transformation – the verbal component bears the semantic load of transformations. It is transformed from a simple predicate of the sentence into a derived word-combination, whereas in the compound words – into a verb-steem acting as the dominant component.
