STYLISTIC DIFFERENTIATION OF RUSSIANISMS IN THE DARGWA LANGUAGE

Abstract

The article deals with stylistic differentiations of Russian borrowings in the Dargwa language. These issues are relevant at the present stage, as there are few works related to this topic concerning Dargwa. The stylistic differentiation of a language and linguistic means depends on many factors, primarily on the characteristics of literary language education, the attitude of native speakers to the literary language, and the presence or absence of a policy of conscious influence on the functional development of the language. The history of the formation of the modern literary language of the Dargins, like many literary languages, is of particular interest to sociolinguistics. Characterizing the stylistic coloring of Russianisms in Dargwa, one cannot ignore: the ambiguous perception of the entire fund of Russian words by the intelligentsia, the varying degree of assimilation of Russianisms at various levels of Dargwa, the constant contradiction between the codified norm and the natural norm of perception of foreign language elements by the Dargwa system itself. The stylistic potencies of Russianisms – units of various levels are determined by two factors: the degree of phono-morphological adaptation of Russianisms in accordance with the laws of the language and the codified norms of the literary Dargwa. The stylistic potencies of the original units and Russianisms are not the same.
