The linguistic material subjected to analysis here is drawn from ten Shakespearian plays representative of the major literary types, i.e., comedies, historical plays and tragedies. All the quotations are based on W.J. Craig's 1971 edition of Shakespeare Complete Works, London-New York-Toronto: OUP. The results of the present statistical investigation seem to show that there are no major differencies in the functioning of the two adjective-forming suffixes as they occur in the sample material. The differencies are rather quantitative in nature: -like is used to a much less extent in the relational function than -ly and the number of occurrences of -ly is twice as large as that of -like.}, type={article}, title={Denominal adjectives in -like and -ly in Shakespeare'splays}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/132922/PDF-MASTER/6_SILESIANA_26_Kakietek_DENOMINAL.pdf}, }
