Abstract

The article examines the cognitively significant, culturally and historically noteworthy derived words representing Russian dialects. The vocabulary of Russian dialectal word formation is viewed in the aspect of studying the patterns of organization of its complex units – various fragments of lexical word-building nests. The analysis of such derived dialectal words as facts reflecting Russian material and spiritual culture can present highly valuable and, in many respects, theoretically and practically important material for characterizing the derivational potential of the Russian language as a system, on the whole.Special attention should be paid to words possessing cognitively significant semantics representing meanings but having no one-word expression in the system of the Russian literary language. In the author’s opinion, it is appropriate to view such words not discretely but in the structure of various fragments of lexical word-building nests. The latter can consist entirely of dialectal words or present a synthesized type of nest fragments in which the words of the Russian literary language and the dialectal units are viewed together within a group of related words.
