Semantic derivation is one of the aspects that reveals the dynamic potential of lexical items, the mechanisms and strategies of lexical items’ extensions, the semantic associations that underlie the development of lexical items’ semantic paradigms. As a dynamic phenomenon, semantic derivation is interpreted in relation to the notion of semantic shift, which refers to a pair of senses linked by some genetic relations, either diachronically or synchronically. Such an approach correlates with the idea of semantic derivation consistency, which provides for establishing the characteristics of a lexical item’s semantic potential in its dynamic developing.
