The present paper describes the problem of structure and functioning of adverbs with the -EHbK- and -OHbK- formant in Russian of the latter half of the 17th century. 19 adverbs of that kind were found in works of the canon Avvakum, in some novels (written in a colloquial language) as well as in official texts, and personal correspondence. In the analysed samples the adverbs with diminutive suffix -EHbK-and -OHbK- carry a positive emotional load, and reflect a high degree of the given feature. The adverbial structures discussed here were used in the colloquial Russian language of the 17th century.

In the Slovak language, adjectives are derived from the basic form of the French geographical names. The short suffix - 'sky' or the longer one - 'ský' is added to the derivational base. The selection of the applied suffix on the base of so-called rhythmical law is problematic. We propose to use longer suffix -'ský'. The derivation of the adjectives from the several types of the French geographical names is connected with the modification of the final morphemes. For some types of the French geographical names, the final morphemes are omitted.

Antonyms - just like synonyms and homonyms - may affect each other's meanings, even though opposition does not have as important a role in meaning specification as synonymy or homonymy does. In forming pairs of opposites, both concrete and abstract ones, an important role is played by derivational suffixes of opposite functions. Denominal privative adjectives in -tlAn denoting 'lacking something' tend to contrast semantically with adjectives carrying the suffix -(V)s meaning 'being supplied with something' and/or with constructions suffixed by -(j)U, closely related to the former. Available definitions of the uses of -(V)s and -(j)U suggest that the privative forms should only contrast semantically with derivatives involving -(V)s, in view of the fact that it is only a 'part-whole' relationship that makes it possible to detach the 'part' from the 'whole'. Indeed, a prerequisite of the use of a privative suffix is that the 'part' should be an alienable part or property of the possessive argument bearing the subject role. The aim of this paper is a presentation and semantic analysis of pairs of antonyms, as well as their classification into categories based on the various notions of opposites (exclusive opposition, converseness, difference in degree) in semiotics. The author gives a detailed account of pairs of words in -tlAn vs. -(V)s derived from the same stem and hence antonymous in terms of the original semantics of their suffixes, noting that such derivatives in some cases have deviated from their original meanings (e.g., csinos 'pretty' - csintalan 'naughty', kedves 'kind' - kedvetlen 'dispirited', szemes 'cute' - szemtelen 'impertinent'), and she devotes special attention to privative doublets (emerging due to semantic fission) and their opposites (e.g., alomtalan 'dreamless' / almatlan 'sleepless' - almos 'sleepy', gondtalan 'carefree' / gondatlan 'careless' - gondos 'careful').

The author provides a description of means and ways of forming nouns 'Nomina attributiva' based on the old Serbian texts from 12th until 15th century. It presents the systematization of individual formants' derivatives according to basic word formation categories. It makes the description of the language condition in 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th centuries and gives a comparison on some important differences between word formation in the researched period and that domain of science in a modern literary Serbian language.
