HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF BORROWED PRONOUNS IN THE BASHKIR LANGUAGE

Abstract

The article considers the historical development of borrowed pronouns of the Bashkir language. The article explains the features of the following pronouns: нимә “what”, кем “who”, көллө, көллөһө “all”. The author substantiates the idea that there are most borrowings among definite and indefinite pronouns. The author connects this idea with the fact that these categories of pronouns were formed in the later period of the formation of the Bashkir language. Special attention is paid to the origin of pronouns borrowed from Arabic. The author describes in detail the parallel functioning of the borrowed pronouns көллө, әллә, бәғзе in the Arabic and Bashkir languages. The question of the etymology of the pronoun әллә remains debatable. Also in the article, the author explores the names of the pronouns Zamir and Ismu Zamir, which were found in the early 20s of the 20th century and are Arabisms. The above analysis in scientific work gives sufficient reason to assert that all borrowings among the Bashkir pronouns have Arabic and Persian roots.
