ENDerivative synonyms are the kind of synonyms, which have the same root, different derivational affixes and very similar or identical lexical meaning. 524 derivatives from the Dictionary of Modem Lithuanian published in 2000 were included into 220 rows of derivative synonyms. Some of them are discussed in this article. The rows of synonyms are formed of the derivatives with various suffixes, inflections, prefixes and compound words. Very often derivatives have the suffixes -ynas, -ynė. Some derivative synonyms in this word-building category are derived from different base words f. e. brydė (: brido) and išbrida (: išbrido) but they also have a very similar or identical meaning. Derivative synonyms are used in the same contexts most often but sometimes some of these words are not currently used (sankrova). [From the publication]
