Word-formation motivation (WFM) is a fundamental and a key lexical phenomenon in the lexis of Slavonic languages. WFM is concerned with both appellatives and proper nouns. The study deals with a partial question of a proper name as a motivating element and provides with the factors affecting the onymic derivative capacity. In this respect, we refer to two theories: the theory of a proper name by V. Blanar and the theory of semantic structure of the Slovak deverbatives by K. Buzassyová. V. Blanar points out that onymic meaning consists of two parts, namely designation and reference. The fundamental Buzassyova's theoreme can be stated as follows: the derivative capacity of the verbal lexical units are determined by the intention of the verbal action. The present article points out that the derivative capacity of the proper names is determined by onymic meaning: the designation specifies basic derivatives of the word-formation paradigm of a respective proper noun (anthroponym, or toponym); the reference determines the number of other (non-basic) derivatives. The corpus of the proper names and their derivatives is taken from 'Slovnik korenovych morfém slovenciny' (Slovak dictionary of root morphemes, Sokolová et al., 2005).

The article informs about a new monograph 'Kompozice v kontextu soucasne cestiny' (Composition in the context of contemporary Czech) - Mitter (2006) which deals with the role of composition in the contemporary Czech language. This theme is attractive for several reasons, of which the most significant are: increase of composition as a word-formation process in Slavonic languages; insufficient attention paid to this issue (in Czech as well in Slovak linguistics); and last but not least, it brings several possibilities to compare the dynamism of Czech and Slovak wordstocks. Mitter's complex analysis raises questions as well, concerning: e.g. onomasiological status of compounds, word-formation motivation, formal structure, relation between form and (word-formation) meaning.

The study is devoted to work of Juraj Furdik, an influential and exceptional Slovak linguist. The domain of Furdik's interests was above all word-formation, morphology and contact linguistics. His work can be characterised by quality rather than quantity -his bibliography contains no less than 150 entries. However, more important is the fact that Furdik's writings are remarkable for their deep scientific insight. The paper stresses the importance of J. Furdik in the context of Slovak linguistics.

The paper introduces a two-volume publication entitled 'Slavonic Onomastics. Encyclopedia' (SOE), written by a collective of authors and released in Poland (2002-2003). SOE includes editor's preface by E. Rzetelska-Feleszko, introductory chapter by R. Srámek, 24 'hyperchapters' (entries) and supplements. Each entry is composed of 12 chapters devoted to onomastics and onymy in Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Russian Federation, Ukraine, Belarus, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia; attention is paid to onymy of the Slavs in Germany, too. SOE contains parts that discuss various onomastic issues (history, theory, terminology, etymology, anthroponymy, toponymy, chrematonymy, language contacts etc.). SOE is predominantly based on a comparative background and represents a first synthetic description of proper names in slavonic linguistics.
