TRENDS OF ESTABLISHMENT AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE TERM TRUNCATION IN UKRAINIAN DERIVATOLOGY

Abstract

The article is devoted to the formation of a system of terms to define the concept of «cutting off» the phonemic end or a certain part of the creative basis in the process of new words formation in the Ukrainian language, which contributes to the terminological order in Ukrainian derivatology. Formation of the terms truncation and trimming in Ukrainian derivatology, notes the influence of the corresponding terms of Russian derivatology on this process is studied in the article. The correlation of the term truncation with numerous terms based on the clipping (rejection) of the part of the creative basis, accompanied by phonetic changes and without them, in particular with such as befixless (suffixless) method of creation, rederivation (inverse word formation), zero apophysis telescopy, etc., in different periods of linguistics development. The characteristic features of two terminological units at the present stage of development of Ukrainian derivatology are singled out: truncation as a morphological phenomenon and truncation as an independent way of word formation. It was found that truncation of the creative basis is possible not only during affixation, but also in the absence of any affixes in derived words. This phenomenon is observed in the creation of complex words of different types. It is called an abbreviation truncation of bases or an abbreviation type of abbreviation, based on the abbreviation type of word formation is distinguished, or an abbreviation, the essence of which is the formation of an abbreviation word due to abbreviation of words of the corresponding nominative phrase. There is a tendency for the term Elysium to function, in particular, it was that this term has not become widely used in Ukrainian word formation, apparently because the phenomenon it calls is not very characteristic of word-forming acts of the Ukrainian language. It is found out that in Ukrainian theoretical and applied derivatology the term truncation appeared in connection with the need for morphological adaptation of the phonemic end of the creative basis with the phonemic beginning of the word-forming suffix in the process of their combination and formation of a new word. It was considered one of the types of mutual adaptation of morphemes, along with the alternation of phonemes and interfixation during affix word formation. With this meaning it is codified both in word formation and in word-forming morphology.
