/ˈdʒɛn(ə)rədɪv/,

/ˈdʒɛnəˌreɪdɪv/

Forms: Middle English generatif, Middle English generatiff, Middle English generatyf, Middle English generatyff, Middle English–1500s generatife, Middle English–1500s generatyue, Middle English–1600s generatiue, 1600s– generative; also Scottish pre-1700 generatyve, pre-1700 generatywe.

Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from French. Or (ii) a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French generatif; Latin generativus.

Etymology: < Anglo-Norman and Middle French generatif (French génératif ) of or relating to the generation of offspring, having the power or function of reproducing (1314 in Old French; frequently in membres generatifs (plural) genitals), productive, creative, causative (a1365) or its etymon post-classical Latin generativus generative, productive (6th cent.; frequently from 12th cent. in British sources), concerned with begetting or reproduction (frequently from 12th cent. in British sources) < classical Latin generāt- , past participial stem of generāre generate v. + -īvus -ive suffix. Compare Catalan generatiu (14th cent.), Spanish generativo (second half of the 14th cent.), Italian generativo (a1308).Specific use in French with reference to linguistics is first attested later (1965) than in English, and is modelled on the English use.

1. Of or relating to the generation of offspring; having the power or function of reproducing; procreative, reproductive. Also figurative and in extended use.

generative grammar n. Linguistics the grammatical description of a language using a set of logical rules, formulated to be capable of generating the infinite number of possible sentences of that language; (also) the approach to the study of syntax which seeks to account for language through the formulation of such rules; cf. transformational adj.
