Classification of English and Ukrainian suffixes according to their grammatical function. Noun-forming, verb-forming, adjective-forming, and adverb-forming suffixes. Classification of English and Ukrainian suffixes according to their etymology. Native and borrowed suffixes. Classification of English and Ukrainian suffixes according to their productivity. Highly productive and less productive suffixes. Suffixes-homonyms. Classification of English and Ukrainian suffixes according to their valency. Classification of English and Ukrainian suffixes according to their meaning. Classification of English and Ukrainian prefixes. Polysemantic prefixes. Native and borrowed prefixes. Highly productive and less productive prefixes. Semantic functions of English and Ukrainian affixes. Hybrids. Derivational paradigm.
