The article contains an overview of the basic word-formation characteristics of Slovene, i. e. its word-formation categories and meanings, and the most productive affixes. Slovene has a rich inventory of word-formation affixes. Its core word-formation procedures are derivation and composition. Typical affixes and semantic groups of complex words are illustrated with examples from the formation of individual parts of speech. Other word-formation processes such as backformation, reduplication, blending, clipping and wordcreation are mentioned as non-systemic formation, partly resulting in ad-hoc formations.

The analysis focuses on the dialectal names for the medicinal herbs in Krajinski park Goričko which are analysed from linguistic-cultural point of view and classified into groups considering the elements which influence the motivation for denominations. The documenting and semantics of the dialectal denomiantions of the medicinal herbs are highlighted on the basis of the comparison and authentication in the dictionaries of the Slovene literary language, i.e. in the Pleteršnikov dictionary and the SSKJ. The analysis outlines which names have entered the literary language and which one exist only in the dialect, which means they are more or less forgotten.

This article brings together the theory of picture books and the methods of integrated reading of picture books by groups of adults with reading or understanding difficulties. When considering a picture book, which is a particular book format in itself, one needs to understand that it comprises three key ingredients: text, illustration and visual-verbal interaction. A picture book tells a story in two languages and is limited in length. The examples of quality picture books showcased here include picture books that are (also) appropriate for adults, which means they have a wider age span and range of reading levels. Through integrated reading of a picture book, deciphering both communication codes, adult readers with mental handicaps find it easier to understand the content of a book, which is the basic principle of light reading.

The purpose of the study was to find and compare the effectiveness of conventional workshop and an e-learning module in teachers’ lifelong/permanent professional training. A study included 30 mother tongue teachers. The aim of the teachers training course curriculum was focused in their competence for developing students’/reader’s reception metacognition (RRM), a competence which is a prerequisite for differentiation/individualization in the process of implementation of literature curriculum in the frame of mother tongue education. Pre- intervention and post- intervention teaching practice of both groups of teachers were observed and compared to find out, which form of lifelong education influenced participants’ teaching practice in a more effective way. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of data, gained in e-module and compared with those, gained in the traditional work shop education, shows a significantly bigger effect of education on the case study participants teaching practice for the group of teachers, which participated in traditional educational form – a workshop.
