Abstract

The description of word formation in Grammatik der illyrischen Sprache (Wien, 1854) by Andrija Torkvat Brlić and Slovnica Hèrvatska za gimnazije i realne škole (Zagreb, 1859) by Antun Mažuranić is very important in the history of Croatian grammatography, especially for the history of word formation itself as one of several aspects of language analysis. Therefore, this paper analyzes the methods of description of adjective formation in both grammars. The analyzed types of adjectival formation, i.e. derivation and suffixes, in the two grammars are compared. The results are then compared to the modern approaches to grammatical descriptions of adjective formation in Croatian.
