Abstract
In the national corpus of the Kazakh language, word-formation markings are among the linguistic markups that have their own structure, as well as other morphological, lexical and semantic markups. Therefore, when preparing the development of word-formation markups, it is necessary to consider the phenomena characteristic of word-formation markings. In this article, we consider the history of word formation as a separate branch of linguistics. We focused on derived words and word-formation approaches as a structural aspect of word-formation markups.
