Abstract
Research topicality. Nowadays language modelling researches are popular as they can be used in corpus linguistics.
Semantics has been one of the important branches in linguistics as its results can be useful in a great number of scientific
directions.
The conception of R. de Saussure’s language modelling, presented in the article combines language modelling and
semantics research at the same time. The theory with its practical use, demonstrated in the article can be applied in
any kind of linguistic science, computer linguistics, in particular as language word formation system is regarded from a
mathematical standpoint.
The aim of research is to introduce new linguistic ideas of Rene de Saussure, first elaborated on artificial languages
(Esperanto) and based on an essential language (French), then to apply them in two more languages: English and Turkish.
Research task is to study the theoretical ideas (roots and affixes xlassification) and to check how the analysis with
the principles of necessity and sufficiency, proposed by Rene de Saussure can work in essential languages English and
Turkish.
Materials and methods of the research are general scientific methods such as analysis, synthesis, abstracting,
systematic approach.
The results of research. The classification presented in the article can be useful in creating online affix dictionaries;
word formation theory explains the structure of a word from a mathematical standpoint and reveals why some words
require affixes. The analysis can be useful in language construction.
