Derivational Suffixes in the Professional Speech of Internal Affairs Officers

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: This study explores the morphological, semantic, and communicative roles of derivational suffixes in English used in law-enforcement discourse. It focuses on several suffixes, such as -tion/-ation, -er/-or, -ive, -al, -ity, -ment, -ance/-ence, and -able/-ible, providing examples related to investigative practices and institutional communication. Using a descriptive method, the study analyses how suffixation produces words that express actions, processes, occupational roles, attributes, and abstract notions.
