The goal of the study is to point to the poly-functionality of adaptation morphemes of words borrowed from French to Slovak, the so-called French loanwords. The study takes into account the already-existing works on this topic together with the types of contact relationships between languages while it also characterizes the examined material. The principal part of the study is a quantitative-qualitative analysis of adjectival and verbal poly-functional morphemes. Within these most represented word-classes we examine individual word-formation types and evaluate the ratio of identical morphemes in inflection and derivation. It turns out that one and the same morpheme has inflectional function in non-motivated French loan words while in the derived words which are motivated by word-formation motivation, it has derivational function. From the diachronic point of view, morphemes -antný and -izovať include a residual infix of dual character: grammatical (verbs) and word-formation (adjectives).
