This paper focuses on the potential of using corpora to study manifestations of the synchronic dynamics of language and on the analysis of how words with the suffixes -ita/-osť function in contemporary texts. The analysis is based on data from the Slovak National Corpus: the corpus of older texts (texts from 1955 to 1989), the primary corpus (texts from 1955 to 2017, especially since 2000), and the corpus of online texts (until 2017). A comparison of the frequency and collocations of the analyzed words shows the dynamics of these microsystems in the language of the previous and the current period.
