1. In Dzongkha (Asian Language that i am working in) 2. I mean, root word and word formed after affixation to this root word. Does the meaning of those words have to be related or can they differ. Just curious to know since in my language many words can be formed from a single root word after affixations, but in some case its meaning are not related to its root word.
For example, in English, for a root word work, we have working, rework, worked...etc. which all of them are related to the root word work. Thanks.
