(2020), examines the word-formational potential of lexemes from a unique three-dimensional perspective. However, the original model deliberately excludes all non-affixal word-formation processes, such as conversion, transflexion, and morphological motivation. As noted by Popova (2020), this exclusion results in relatively shallow and sparsely populated networks, particularly in languages where conversion plays a highly productive role in word formation. This paper aims to provide a more comprehensive perspective on the role of conversion in derivational networks by contrasting the findings of Körtvélyessy et al. (2020) with those of networks where conversion is systematically incorporated. To achieve this, the study reconstructs the original English networks, as compiled by Popova (2020), and the Slovak networks, as compiled by Ivanová (2020), integrating conversion, transflexion and morphological motivation. Given that English relies heavily on conversion, while Slovak exhibits limited productivity in this regard, the comparison of these two languages offers valuable insights. The study seeks to determine whether the inclusion of non-affixal processes significantly alters the structure and density of derivational networks, thereby refining our understanding of word-formation patterns across languages.\nKeywords: derivational networks, derivation, conversion, transflexion.\nReferences:\nIvanová, M.
