The paper analyzes the methods of enriching the Slovak Carpathian Romany vocabulary by Romany authors on the basis of existing Romany word-formation bases. The most frequent method is analogical formation which consists in assigning a new metaphorical or metonymical meaning to an existing form. The Slovak Carpathian Romany makes also use of standard derivational rules. Calques of Slovak complex words are less frequent, mostly restricted to nonce formations which have not yet become an integral part of the Slovak Carpathian Romany.
