Root as a means of forming new lexical units in Tamzight

Aẓar deg tmaziγt d allal n usileγ n tayunin timaynutin

Abstract

The formation of the lexicon in Tamazight is primarily based on two processes, namely derivation and composition. However, when we make a small assessment of the number of units formed, we immediately realize that the deficiencies in terms of the lexicon are not filled due to the lack of derivation bases, which leads us to resort to lexical borrowing. This article proposes a new method of creating lexemes attested in everyday language but not known in the scientific domain. From these newly created lexemes, new forms and especially new specialized units are formed that can be used in different domains. This article does not consist of creating new units, but of describing a process that already exists in the language, the objective of which is to make known how this method works.
