well-established domain in morphological studies. Many inquiries have
investigated the mechanisms exploited by languages to create new words (see
Štekauer & Lieber 2006; Müller et al. 2015), especially compounding and
derivation, according to different approaches, as e.g. cognitive approaches,
onomasiological approaches (see Lieber & Štekauer 2009), constructionist
approaches (Construction Morphology; see Booij 2015), etc. Most of the above
have focused on the semantic and formal properties of derived words and/or
compounds from a synchronic perspective (see e.g. Bauer 2017; Schäfer 2018 on
compounding).<span></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif" lang="EN">Conversely, less attention has been given to the diachrony
of WF, although a diachronic perspective is crucial for highlighting many
aspects of WF, e.g. productivity of affixes or compound constituents, changes
affecting the formal and/or semantic dimension of morphologically complex
words, competition between two or more WF strategies, etc. These topics have so
far been addressed by a relatively limited number of studies, which however
have shown that diachrony is a promising perspective to improve our
understanding of how WF mechanisms emerge, develop, compete with each other,
and also of how they disappear from use (see e.g. Hilpert 2013: 110-154 and
Hüning 2019 on diachronic changes in WF).<span></span></span></p>
