FROM THE HISTORY OF GEOGRAPHICAL NOMENCLATURE TERMS: -<i>YORT/-YURT</i> (<i>ISKE YURT</i> "OLD DWELLING", TATARSTAN); -<i>YORT</i> (<i>KARANGY YORT</i> "DARK HOUSE", BASHKORTOSTAN); <i>-YURD</i> (<i>CHOHUR YURD</i> "HOME IN THE HOLLOW", IRAN); <i>-ÇORT/-ÇURT </i>(<i>KIV ÇORT</i> / KIV ÇURT "OLD HOME", CHUVASHIA); <i>-GOROD </i>(<i>IVANGOROD</i>, LENINGRAD REGION); <i>-GRAD </i>(<i> SOLNOGRAD</i>"SALZBURG", GERMANY); -<i>GARD </i>(<i>HOLMGARD</i> "HOLMGOROD" = NOVGOROD, RUSSIA)
The purpose of the article is to review the inter-Turkic parallels of geographical nomenclature terms: Bashkir-Tat. -yort/-yurt, Chuvash, -çort/ - çurt; overview of inter-Slavic and Indo-European parallels: proto-Slavic -gord, Old Slavonic -grad, the East Slavic- gorod, Germ. -gard; proofs of the ascent of common Turkic forms to the original common Slavic ones, from the naming origin of generating bases. Scientific novelty lies in the effective application of radixology and imitativics techniques. The results of the research in practical terms are intended to: 1) to enrich and update the relevant articles of historical and etymological dictionaries of all Turkic, Slavic, Germanic, etc. languages; 2) to clarify the views of historians and ethnologists/ethnographers about the chronological depth and the initial nature of inter-family relations, the latter clearly relates to the problems of glotto-, ethno- and topogenesis. The results of the research open up the prospect for new similar works devoted to a particular class of geographical nomenclature terms within the borders of the Altaic and the Indo-European languages.
