Derivational morphology is an umbrella term used for concatenative and non-concatenative processes for the formation of new lexemes. In Modern Greek, derivational morphology is one of the major morphological processes along with compounding and inflection. In recent years, research on derivational morphology has evolved rapidly. We present here the state-of-the-art on the recent advances in the derivational morphology of Modern Greek. First, we present affixational derivation by focusing on the main features of the derivational affixes used in Modern Greek and then we present the non-concatenative derivational processes. We also discuss the main theoretical issues related to derivational morphology, that is, constraints, competition and productivity of derivational patterns, and the main theoretical approaches to Modern Greek derivational structures. Finally, we present some general themes of derivational morphology, including the relationship between derivation and other morphological processes and the role of derivational morphology in scientific terminology, language teaching/lexicography and psycholinguistics. We aim to contribute to better understanding of how morphology works by highlighting the potential of research on derivational morphology in Modern Greek.

ERIS, a lexical resource of Modern Greek for offensive language detection, is the result of cleansing, enriching and assigning graded offensiveness values to the EL branch of HurtLex. ERIS contains 1148 entries and is openly available. Graded values were obtained with the Best-Worst Scaling methodthat was applied with the Litescale tool. Nouns and adjectives that have humans as a target were found to attract bigger offensiveness values. The classification of the terms in ERIS with the BWS method and a previous classification of a substantial subset of these terms into “offensive (context in/dependent)” with the inter-annotator agreement method are found to stand in a broad correlation, thus validating the methodology that was adopted to produce a more fine-grained and informative affective lexical resource. ERIS contains 1148 terms and their inflectional paradigms. It is openly available under the CC-BY-NC 4.0 license.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
