	Trên đây là sáu cách xác định cơ bản. Tuy nhiên để thông thạo derivatives chúng ta sẽ gặp nhiều khó khăn. Thứ nhất là phải dịch mới biết chắc. Thứ hai là phải lập từ điển derivatives theo 4 cột V – N – Adj – Adv. Thứ ba là có thể có nhiều từ cùng một từ loại khiến ta phải lựa chọn về ý nghĩa.
Người học giỏi không bao giờ phải học vị trí từ mà họ chỉ cần dịch đúng vì chỉ có mấy nguyên tắc cơ bàn sau: S / O phải là Noun phrase, miêu tả N phải là Adj, miêu tả Verb phải là Adv, miêu tả Adj phải là Adv
Eg: They paid only $10 for such a big cake. It is so _____________________ (expense)
