Abstract

Interjections can serve as a base for the formation of other word categories and can thus create extensive word families. The most common word-formational process involved here is the systematic formation of interjectional verbs. This process follows predictable patterns in the creation of higher-degree formations, as illustrated by the word families of the interjections kvak ‘croak’, jav ‘ouch’, štop ‘stop’, put ‘come’, čav ‘bye’.
