GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF BORROWINGS AND LEXICO-SEMANTIC NEOPLASMS

Abstract

This article provides an overview of scientific and theoretical works devoted to the study of the process of borrowing foreign lexemes in the Russian language.The borrowing of foreign lexemes in Russian has a long history, its own patterns and stages. Currently, this phenomenon is experiencing its heyday. This is due to a number of specific linguistic and extralinguistic factors, such as linguistic processes and social conditions. The active replenishment of the lexical system with foreign language elements organically complements it, providing native speakers with the opportunity to more accurately express thoughts and emphasize semantic nuances.
