How to use "Derivation" in context?
The word "derivation" derives from the Latin word "derivare," meaning "to take something from a higher source." In linguistics, derivation is the process of creating a new word by inflecting an existing word. Derivation can be semantic, wherein a new word is formed from a different root or meaning of an existing word, or morphological, wherein a new word is formed from the combination of two existing words.
