Derivative
Definition:
(a.) Obtained by derivation; derived; not radical, original, or fundamental; originating, deduced, or formed from something else; secondary; as, a derivative conveyance; a derivative word.
(n.) That which is derived; anything obtained or deduced from another.
(n.) A word formed from another word, by a prefix or suffix, an internal modification, or some other change; a word which takes its origin from a root.

(n.) An agent which is adapted to produce a derivation (in the medical sense).
(n.) A derived function; a function obtained from a given function by a certain algebraic process.
