This Historical-Etymological Dictionary of Russian Lexicon covers the 17th–19th centuries, with Volume 1 (A–M) containing approximately 3,400 dictionary entries. It focuses on the most frequent significant units—words and phrases—found in Russian texts of the 19th century. Of particular interest are those lexical items that first entered Russian speech usage in the late 18th century and continued through the 19th century. The entries are primarily of native Russian origin, but also include borrowings from Romance and Germanic languages, as well as exoticisms referring to realities of the third world. The material is mainly arranged alphabetically, though a nested method of describing dictionary units is also permitted.
This dictionary is recommended for philology students, and it is also considered essential for university teachers, postgraduate students, and researchers in linguistic-historical and cultural studies institutes. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of Russian vocabulary during a pivotal period of linguistic development.
