• Resumen

  • The paper proposes a preliminary description of Serbian compounds within a Meaning-Text model. It focuses on synchronic productive compounds, constructed by word-formation rules, as opposed to diachronic compounds, stored in the dictionary. Properties of synchronic compounds are established and sample rules are formulated allowing for their synthesis from underlying semantic representations. Some "intermediate cases" of compounding are discussed and their possible treatment outlined.
