Derywacja odfrazeologiczna: współczesny stan badań

In the paper, scientific literature concerning phraseological derivation has been reviewed. Phraseological derivation is very important in developing lexical resources. Main part of the paper concerns the process of univerbation. Review of the scientific literature shows that the view of European scientists on the complex issue of correlation between phraseol-ogy and word formation in deriving words from idioms is still up to date. The aim of the research paper is to make the reader think further of the complex issue of phraseological derivation.
