PERCEPCIA A LEXIKOGRAFICKÉ SPRACOVANIE ZLOŽENÝCH ADJEKTÍV

The study deals with and comments on a typology of compound adjectives as introduced in the works of Slovak linguists. Three research areas are analyzed into more details: 1. Comparison of adjective compounds with quantitatively- intensifying compounds such as malo-, veľko-, vysoko-, nízko-, rýchlo- etc. with international quantitatively-intensifying prefixoids makro-, mini etc. 2. Analysis of compounds with a component -vzdorný. We deal with an oscillation of this type between the common compounds (vodovzdorný) and juxtaposed compounds (žiaruvzdorný). 3. We also pay attention to the spelling and grammar of adjective compounds, whose constituents are in the relation of coordination or conspicuousness (zreteľ).
