| Abstract | The reported study ventures a comparison between Generative Grammar and Neo-Construction Grammar (including Distributed Morphology) with respect to word-formation by derivation. On the basis of English -er nominalizations it is shown that the well-established generative mechanisms of word-formation reveal significant generalizations (e.g. the well-formedness of deverbal or denominal derivatives like writer, singer, potter, saddler etc.), but fail to account for less regular formations (e.g. vanisher, thriller, greener, upper, empty nester). On the other hand, the neo-constructionist approaches presented so far are prone to overgeneration because they lack morpho-syntactic mechanisms which specify the compatibility between affixes and potential bases. In the article, it is argued that this asymmetry, which seems to be theory-dependent at first sight, actually results from one and the same linguistic fact: the preference of affixes for particular bases. Without favouring one of the current theoretical directions, it is proposed that -er derivation centres around a prototype which is determined not only conceptually, but also semantically and morpho-syntactically.
