| Abstract: | This paper examines the theoretical background of proprial word- formation and displays the endeavour to formally distinguish proper names from common nouns. The distinction leads to the differentiation between the formation of common nouns and proper names, both being a direct result of the opposition between the appellative and proprial language spheres. A special attention is devoted to the so-called parasystemic formation of proper names. The substance of this phenomenon lies in the fact that proper names have become separate from the basic system of notional appellatives and have constituted themselves into special peripheral systems and subsystems, i.e. parasystems. Their common feature is using peripheral word-formation means and processes. |
