3. What do you mean under the word-formation analysis used in Semantics? Give its definition and illustrate how and when it is used in Semantics (use your own examples).
A structural word-formation analysis proceeds further: it studies the structural
correlation with other words, the structural patterns or rules on which words are built.
This is done with the help of the principle of opposition. For example, by studying the partly similar elements, the difference between which is functionally relevant; in our case this difference is sufficient to create a new word. Red and reddish are members of a morphemic opposition. They are similar as the root morpheme is the same.

4. How can you formulate the principles of IC’s (Immediate constituents) analysis used in Semantics? Give its definition and illustrate how and why it is used in Semantics (use your own examples).
The analysis into IC which I am going to describe below permits us to obtain the morphemic structure and provides the basis for further word-formation analysis. Immediate constituents are any of the two meaningful parts forming a larger linguistic unity. First suggested by L.Bloomfield, it was later developed by many linguists. The main opposition dealt with is the opposition of stem and affix.
Un- + character + -istic + -ally
So, a box-like diagram, presenting the 3 cuts described looks as follows.

1. 
   Un- / characteristically
   
2. 
   Un- / character / -ly
   
3. 
   Un- / character / -istic / -ally
   

5. What do you know about the transformational analysis used in Semantics? Give its definition and illustrate how and what is the purpose of its using in Semantics (use your own examples).
The above procedure is an elementary case of the transformational analyses in which the
semantic similarity or difference of words is revealed by the possibility of transforming them according to a prescribed model and following certain rules into a different form, called their t r a n s f o r m. The conditions of equivalence between the original form and the transform are formulates in advance. In our case the conditions to be fulfilled are the sameness of meaning and the kernel morpheme.
For example un- believable or unbelief - able
