The derivation of a new noun in High Valyrian occurs through attaching a suffix to a root. Note that sound and spelling changes may occur.
From a Noun
Augmentative Noun
An augmentative noun enhances and intensifies the concept conveyed through the word. There exist three suffixes that may derive augmentative nouns from nouns: -io, -albar, and -āzma.
Observations:
Judging from the word family nopon (hole, pit), nopalbar (cave), and nopāzma (hell), -āzma may exceed -albar in augmentation.
A third aquatic noun ending in -or has the o deleted and the r retained; this is called a vowel elison or syncope.

Derive abstract nouns that have the English meaning of -ness from adjectives. Class I adjectives use the suffix -āves, Class II, -ves, and Class III, -ives.
Observations:
For roots of Class II adjectives ending in -n, replace -n with -m.

From a Verb
Action Nouns
The suffix -non derives action nouns from verbs. In general, c-fin verbs have -agon replaced with -non and v-fin verbs retain the final vowel to which -non is added.
Observations:
For verbs ending in -jagon, the stem ends before the j.
For verbs ending in -ēbagon, the stem ends with -en.
For stems ending in -ñ, -b, -d, or -l, replace this consonant with -n.
For stems ending in -s, replace this consonant with -z.

Diminutive nouns shrink the concept conveyed through a word into a smaller version. There exist three diminutive suffixes: -ītsos, -iapos, and -anna.
Observations:
-ītsos only derives nouns from nouns; -iapos and -anna may derive nouns from nouns and verbs.
-ītsos seems to indicate the smaller version of a noun.

Observations:
For verbs ending with uragon, use the suffix -īlla.
For stems ending in -ē, remove the macron and add an l to the root.
For verbs ending in -egon, retain the e and add a t after or use the suffix -ella.
A third aquatic noun ending in -or has the o deleted and the r retained.

Profession nouns may be derived from other nouns, verbs, or adjective and may end with the suffixes -tys, -rys, or -dys.
Observations:

If the root ends in -d drop this consonant.
If the root ends in -mb, change -m to -n and drop the b
If the root ends in -b, change it to -p.

Causative Verbs
Causative verbs relate to the causes and effects of an action. Derive causative verbs from verbs with the suffix -kagon; use the suffix -ikagon for verbs or nouns.
Observations:
-kagon appears to convey what causes the verb; -ikagon appears to convey what the verb causes.
-kagon if used with a v-fin verb, appears to delete the final vowel in the root.
For -kagon, if the root ends in -z, replace it with -s and remove the macron on the prior vowel.
For -ikagon, if the root ends in -t with o as the root vowel, replace o with u.
For v-fin verbs of the class -agon, they may follow the pattern seen in ropakagon of retaining the final vowel with -kagon or changing the i in -ikagon to a.

Auxiliary Verbs
Auxiliary verbs have a meaning parallel to the original verb. Auxiliary suffixes have a changing vowel that appears to match with the vowels contained in the root; the suffixes include -ābagon, -ēbagon, -ībagon, and -ūbagon.
Observations:
Word formation intrinsically would have a high expected error rate given the flexibility of these suffixes.
A root with ae seems to take -ābagon.
A root with ie seems to take -ēbagon.

Factitive Verbs
Factitive verbs convey providing the accusative object some property and have the suffix -emagon that literally means to have. Note that all verbs formed will retain the irregularity of emagon.
Observations:
Suffix does not appear to distinguish between c-fin and v-fin verbs.
When used with a verb, the new word seems to convey making the accusative object take an action.
When used with an adjective, the new word appears to convey the giving of the adjective to the accusative object.
For adjectives ending in -enka, drop the whole suffix and add -emagon.
