The article deals with the many facets of the concept of productivity in word-formation, focusing on the one hand on the recent elaboration of various statistical quantitative measures made possible by the availability of large textual corpora. On the other hand, the article will provide a brief account of the qualitative impact on productivity given by the different kinds of system-related and cognitively rooted restrictions on wordformation. The distinct, but related, notion of productivity of inflectional classes is also discussed.

Abstract
The article deals with the many facets of the concept of productivity in word-formation, focusing on the one hand on the recent elaboration of various statistical quantitative measures made possible by the availability of large textual corpora. On the other hand, the article will provide a brief account of the qualitative impact on productivity given by the different kinds of system-related and cognitively rooted restrictions on wordformation. The distinct, but related, notion of productivity of inflectional classes is also discussed.
