BORROWINGS FROM EASTERN ASIAN LANGUAGES INTO THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGE OF EASTERN ASIAN COUNTRIES AND THEIR SPECIFICITY

Abstract

The article deals with actualized exotisms and direct borrowings from Eastern Asian languages into the Russian language of the Eastern countries. The process of updating and replenishment of vocabulary, including through borrowings, characterizes the Russian language in China in the first half of the twentieth century as a living language system. One of the main sources of linguistic material is the magazine Rubezh, published in Harbin, in the cultural center of the Russian Eastern countries, from 1926 to 1945, as well as diaries, memoirs, and art works written by emigrants mainly in the 20-40th of the 20th century.
