Abstract
The purpose of this article is to describe borrowed animal names in Modern Russian Language from the point of view of their origin. The object of study was the names of mammals. The main methods of research are Historical and Descriptive and Etymological. As a result of the study, the quantitative composition of this group was determined, the source languages of borrowed names were identifi ed, the ways of their entering into the Russian Language were traced, the place of these words in the Lexical System of the Modern Russian Language was determined. The article concluded that borrowing in the group of animal names can, no doubt, be regarded as enriching the Vocabulary, which occurs as a result of the expansion of knowledge about the world. This process began in the prehistoric era and continues to this day. Sources of borrowings are not only normalized state languages, but various dialects as well. Most frequently, foreign animal names are the result of indirect borrowing. The practical value of this study is that it helps to eliminate lacunas in the Vocabulary study of the language, strengthens the main theoretical positions regarding the borrowing process and confi rms them with new vivid linguistic facts.
