This paper presents the characteristic combinations of suffixes in first-order de-adjectival verbal derivatives. Among the two-suffix, three-suffix sequences and the one five-suffix sequence, there is a prevalence of word-formation models that begin with an initial verb, most commonly a verb with the suffix -iti. We describe the types of suffix sets that emerge and the possible order of derivation when the suffix -iti is combined with nominal, adjectival, and verbal suffixes. In the first group (-iti + NOUN), the nominal suffixes -ilec and -itelj are the most open to further suffixal combination, enabling fourth-order derivatives. In the second group (-iti + ADJ), the adjectival suffix -ilen forms third-order derivatives with several nominal and one adverbial suffix. In the third group (-iti + VERB), the derivatives can reach their maximal suffix set length – in other words, the highest (in this case, fifth) level of derivation – if a compound verb acts as an intermediate element.
