dvdrtrgn commented on the word formulative
Is formulative a generative word? It’s not really listed anywhere...
BTW, by generative I mean a word that mimics other similar word construction patterns. (I don’t know the buzzword for that!)
My estimation is that it could be equal to “formulaic�? but I’ve used this word in my writing to suggest something else: i.e, describe an effort to systematize.
