Περιγραφή: This article examines the phenomenon of syntactic derivation within similar syntactic structures, emphasizing its theoretical and practical significance in modern linguistics. While derivation has traditionally been associated with word formation, recent studies highlight its essential role at the syntactic level, where more complex sentence forms emerge from simpler ones through systematic grammatical and semantic shifts. Drawing on perspectives from generative grammar and the works of scholars such as Chomsky, Jespersen, and Harris, the study outlines how derivational relations differ from transformational ones, with the former primarily altering internal meaning and the latter external form. Various examples demonstrate processes such as causativity, modality, and passivization, which generate new sentence forms while maintaining coherence with the original structures. The analysis also distinguishes between invariant derivation, where the number of sentence members increases or decreases, and syntagmatic derivation, where structures remain formally stable but undergo semantic modification. By classifying derivational operators and their functions, the paper argues that syntactic derivation provides deeper insights into the dynamics of language, revealing mechanisms by which meaning, form, and communicative function interact to produce linguistic diversity.
