Abstract

The article is dedicated to exhibition of innovative processes of the literary Ukrainian language, based on the analysis of scientific works by a prominent linguist, Doctor of Philology, professor O. H. Muromtseva. Study of the neologism emergence features at different stages of the Ukrainian language development is a topical task. Thus, based on the monography «Development of the literary Ukrainian language lexis during the second half of the XIX century and in the beginning of the XX century» and the researcher’s scientific articles, the main productive ways of innovative lexis word formation and its potential are studied. Variance of cognate neologisms, composite word emergence, and the tendencies of the literary Ukrainian language vocabulary development during different historical periods are analysed. Extralingual and intralingual factors influencing the contemporary Ukrainian lexis neologisation and regrouping the national language vocabulary are discovered. An emphasis is put on the Muromtseva’s views on using neologisms and borrowed words, as newly created words must correspond to the models established in the literary language. The researcher’s scientific works are the basis for further research of innovative processes at the contemporary stage. Key words: O. H. Muromtseva, monography, scientific articles, lexis innovations, word formation types, cognate neologisms, borrowed words.
