What's adjective for 'word'?
We have the adj. phrasal for the noun phrase, clausal for clause, and sentential for sentence. So what's the adj. for the noun word?
It seems there is no such an adj. for it. We always use word as a prepositive attrbutive. How would we deal with it if we need a word with the meaning of 'of, about or relating to a word'?
Does this question sound ridiculous?I'd had it in mind before the submitting of the question to write it in the question that I was not refering to the word 'lexical' ( for it's not the adj. for word, but for lexicon, acturally), but later I forgot to type that in :(

The closest answer I can think of would be "lexical"
Definition: "of or relating to words or the vocabulary of a language as distinguished from its grammar and construction."
