In the consciousness of language users, there is an inherent awareness of an elaborated word­formative system, which was well­documented in the second half of the 20th century. However, each derivatologist knows very well that apart from phenomena which are strongly representative of this system, its order is disturbed by various processes. The first one in the order of precedence is the lexical factor – words which arise in accordance with the derivation­related rules are fused with the bulk of the lexicon and they are subject to the same transformations as the non­derived lexemes.

In that case, there arise verbs, usually in ­ować, and then – the process of the reversal of motivation occurs. The word formation system is also disturbed by processes which apply to the sphere of inflexion. The article discusses a new word formation category – resultative departicipial adjectives in ­ły.
