LINGUISTIC AND CULTURAL TRANSFER AS A FORM OF INTERACTION BETWEEN LANGUAGE AND CULTURE (BASED ON BORROWINGS FROM THE ARABIC LANGUAGE)

Abstract

The article analyzes the borrowed lexical units of Arabic origin of the thematic group “Names of household items and clothing”. Active intercultural interaction, therefore, creates the need to study borrowed lexical units. The study of lexical units of Arabic origin from the point of view of cultural and linguistic transfer in a multicultural space expands and enriches the concept of “borrowed vocabulary of the Russian language”. The paper presents a structural and semantic description of Arabisms as units of linguistic and cultural transfer. The article examines the characteristic features of Arabisms from the point of view of etymology and semantics; a detailed description of the phonetic and morphological features of the Russification of Arabisms in the modern Russian literary language is given. The paper shows how language features are fixed in the cultural code. After a detailed analysis of lexical units, it is established that the names of household items and clothing are an integral part of the linguistic and ethnic culture of the people, which forms the basis of the linguistic picture of the human world.
