/dɝˈɪvətɪv/, /dɝˈɪvɪtɪv/

From Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) :   [ bouvier ]

  DERIVATIVE. Coming from another; taken from something preceding, secondary; 
  as derivative title, which is that acquired from another person. There is 
  considerable difference between an original and a derivative title. When the 
  acquisition is original, the right thus acquired to the thing becomes 
  property, which must be unqualified and unlimited, and since no one but the 
  occupant has any right to the thing, he must have the whole right of 
  disposing of it. But with regard to derivative acquisition, it may be 
  otherwise, for the person from whom the thing is acquired may not have an 
  unlimited right to it, or he may convey or transfer it with certain 
  reservations of right. Derivative title must always be by contract. 
       2. Derivative conveyances are, those which presuppose some other 
  precedent conveyance, and serve only to enlarge, confirm, alter, restrain, 
  restore, or transfer the interest granted by such original conveyance, 3 Bl. 
  Com. 321.
