DERYWATY RZECZOWNIKOWE WE WSPÓŁCZESNYM ROSYJSKIM ŻARGONIE NARKOMANÓW

The article concerns nominal derivatives referring to narcotics addicts, psychoactive substan- ces, activities and conditions related to using them as well as objects used to get under their influence. Word formation models used in the jargon of narcotics addicts generally function similarly to the productive word formation models of the common language. Among the number of nominal morphological derivatives, simple derivatives - suffixal and paradigmatic - are most common. There are not many complex derivatives (composite). The phonetic manner of forming new words can be considered a typical jargon word formation procedure. This manner includes the following phenomena: metathesis (transposition of sounds), substitution (replacement of the right sound by another one) or using the first letter instead of the word.
