This research presents three different perspectives on morphological processing. The third perspective establishes a relation between the first two, it being the basis of the developed study. Thus, this article tries to establish the relation between morphologic and lexical processing, this relation being emphasized at the level of verbal comprehension (in an expressive task of defining a wordlist and in an receptive task of identifying the suitable picture for a certain sentences where the focus was on derivative morphemes and the comprehension of the derivate resulted word). In this research 204 participants completed the above mentioned tasks, their results being correlated, thus statistically confirming the significant relation between morphological and lexical processing in Romanian language. A case study is also presented with the aim of strengthening the collected data.

Keywords: verbal comprehension, morphology, lexical processing, pre-lexical processing, derivative morphemes
