FORMATION AND FUNCTIONING OF HOMONYMS IN MEZHGUL TALK UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF TABASARAN-RUSSIAN BILINGUALITY

Abstract

The article discusses an issue of formation and functioning of homonyms in the Mezhgyul dialect in the context of Tabasaran-Russian bilingualism, i.e., those homonymous pairs that arose in the dialect under the direct influence of the Russian language and are used in it are analyzed. The specificity of the study is also related to the fact that the dialect contains homonyms that are not represented in the literary form, dialects and subdialects of the Tabasaran language. The topic under consideration is actually little studied, which gives us the opportunity to emphasize the scientific novelty of the work and contribute to Dagestan comparative linguistics. At the same time, it is important to note that the researcher observes a trend of development or attenuation of interference phenomena due to objective and subjective reasons in the modern bilingual society, which, of course, is an urgent problem in the educational process, because the use of unwanted homonyms in speech, which are usually significant in a situational context, depends on the age of the speakers and on their degree of knowledge of the Russian language. Homonyms in the bilingual environment, which in fact is the communication of the intergyuls, as a result of the adaptation of foreign words through the Russian language, are mainly represented among nouns.
