IGOR G. DOBRODOMOV AND THE OSSETIAN LANGUAGE

Bessolova, Elena B.
Kavkaz Forum. 2020. Issue 1.
Abstract:
The article is devoted to the contribution of Doctor of Philology, Professor Igor
Georgievich Dobrodomov to the study of the Ossetian language. It is noted that
in a number of the works by this talented scientist the substantive etymologies of
Alanisms, borrowed by both Russian and other Slavic languages, are given.
Of particular interest is the coverage of issues such as the etymology associated
with the Alanian regular plural forms; the chronology of the appearance of words
and various versions of their origin; hapax motivation; semantic and phonic
affinity of West Slavic forms and Iranisms; connection of the Iranian world with
West Slavic languages and many others.
Factors that testify to the influence of the Alanian language on the Slavic
and Russian languages, as well as to contributing to the reconstruction of lost
Lexemes Alanisms by tracing them in other languages in order to compile a
complete list of words of the Iranian origin, are also examined in detail here.
The relative chronological hierarchy of lexemes is established by the method of
group reconstruction, carried out on the basis of a synonymous nest based on the
Ossetian language, acting as the only surviving descendant of the long-existing
and with the numerous speakers Scythian-Sarmatian-Alanian language world,
which the Slavic peoples once actively contacted.
Keywords: Ossetian language, Alanisms, Slavic languages, reconstruction, language contact, Russian language, hapax.
