Changes in the Buryat language vocabulary in the linguistic landscape of Ulan-Ude

Бесплатный доступ

The article is devoted to the study of changes in the lexical and terminological apparatus, namely, the socio-political vocabulary of the Buryat language. These changes are perceived as part of the language policy of the Republic of Buryatia. In particular, the author analyzes the purpose and mechanism of such changes, as well as their manifestations in the linguistic landscape (signs of state institutions) of the central part of Ulan-Ude. The study showed a steady tendency towards “Buryatization” of the terminology under consideration, which applies not only to the list of terms approved by the authorities, but also to terminology that is not included in it. Nevertheless, the changes are taking place unevenly: in the linguistic landscape, “old” borrowed and “new” Buryat terms coexist. In addition, in the latter terms, there are observed the phenomena of homonymy and synonymy, which should not take place in the terminological apparatus of the language.
