Summary/Abstract: The paper presents an analysis of the derived nouns, formed by the suffix -ик, which are in the derivational category Agent. The theory of the predicate-argument structure is applied. It is assumed that the suffix -ик in these nouns expresses the argument Agent and the stem expresses a predicate or an argument from their semantic structure. The analysis is based on the way the theory of predicate-argument structure is applied in four researches: the two volumes of the Polish academic grammar from 1984, which are devoted to syntax and morphology, and the fifth and the ninth volume of the Bulgarian-Polish Contrastive Grammar, which are devoted to syntax and word-formation.
