WORD-FORMING MODELS OF GERMAN NOUNS AND THEIR CORRESPONDENTS IN THE UKRAINIAN LANGUAGE

It was found that word formation in general means that a new word is formed on the basis of previously existing words and bases in the language. The method of word formation should be understood as the type of word formation or the method by which a word is formed. The means of word formation should be understood as those specific morphemes that are used to form new words, just as grammatical affixes and inflections are used to form grammatical forms of words. Word-forming rules or laws should be understood as those effective norms of language that regulate the use of methods or means of forming new lexical units. According to the word-formative form, nouns can be divided into root.
