| Description | The article deals with the different semantic criteria and their relevance in the delimitation of word formation processes in Spanish. Although the semantic properties of the derivative affixes (prefixes, suffixes and interfixes) play an important role in the classification and distinction of these morphemes from other types of linguistic elements (word stems, inflectional affixes or mere phonetic segments), the use of semantic criteria in this field varies from an author to another and generally shows a high degree of subjectivity. |
