#Pantalonyfrakzhilet: CHto takoe yazykovye zaimstvovaniya i kak oni rabotayut
Mariya Eliferova
What are language borrowings? This topic, of course, excites each of us. It is discussed in school, in textbooks, in scientific literature and on Internet forums. At the same time, popular excursions into the field of borrowings published in Russia are mostly reduced to the topic of foreign words in the Russian language. But what is borrowing in general, by what signs do we distinguish it, why does it appear in the language, why is it resisted - there has not yet been a book about this. It was this gap that the English philologist Maria Yeliferova tried to fill. Showing how languages interact with each other and how the fate of borrowings develops (we are talking not only about words), the author, along with examples from Russian culture, history and literature, turns to French, German, Spanish and more exotic languages from various parts of the world. ball. This informative and serious book happily combines the depth of scientific analysis with an accessible live presentation, humor and loyalty to rebels and violators of norms and canons.
