Abstract

In article the analysis of derivational relations of composites зълодѣяниє/зълодѣиствиѥ/зълодѣиство and зълодѣи in In Old Russian language and later is carried out. The author asserts that in the history of language there were no strict word-formation communications in sphere of units which were сalque.

In article process of formation of such derivational communications throughout several centuries of development of Russian is described.
