In English lexicology, understanding how words are formed and related is essential for analysing vocabulary expansion and semantic change. When the word "unbelievable" is examined from a morphological perspective, which process best describes its formation and lexical structure?
  1. ABack-formation, because it removes an affix to create a simpler lexical item.
  2. BClipping, because it reduces the original word to a shorter phonological form.
  3. CDerivation, because it adds both a prefix and a suffix to a root, modifying its meaning and grammatical class.
  4. DCompounding, because it joins two independent lexical bases into a single unit.
