ON THE THE MARI INTERJECTIONS ADDRESSING DOGS AND CATS BORROWED FROM THE RUSSIAN LANGUAGE

The article is concerned with one of the lexical-semantic subgroups of the Mari imperative interjections, namely the interjections addressing dogs and puppies, cats and kittens. The aim of the paper is to define vocabulary of the studied interjections and the place of the Russian borrowings among them. To achieve this goal the following tasks were outlined: searching for studied lexemes in the sources, systematization of the revealed lexemes according to their semantics (calling or repelling) and territory of their use, the etymological analysis of the studied data and quantitative calculation of the lexemes according to their origin with special attention to Russian borrowings. The research was conducted on the base of materials of modern grammars, special monographs and articles on the Mari language, lexical data of dictionaries (10 volumed dictionary, dialectical, etymological). When analysing the origin of the lexemes in question etymological and lexicographical works on Russian and Turkic languages were used. In the paper the imperative interjections addressing dogs and puppies, cats and kittens were generalized and systemized for the first time, their origin was revealed. There were established the sets of words for calling and repelling, they were made according to the main dialects of the Mari language. In the sources there were found 14 interjections for calling and repelling dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, and also for hounding dogs: 11 of them address dogs and puppies, 3 of them address cats and kittens. 7 of the revealed interjections are used for calling dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, 7 for repelling, including interjection for hounding dogs. Etymology of 8 items (or 57 %) is connected with Russian language: 6 interjections (3 supposedly) address dogs and puppies, 2 interjections address cats and kittens.
