OUTDATED VOCABULARY AND ITS REFLECTION IN THE NEW "RUSSIAN-KARACHAYEV-BALKARIAN DICTIONARY"
This article is devoted to the lexicographic study of the outdated vocabulary of the modern Karachai-Balkarian language. The relevance of the study is due to insufcient study of the passive vocabulary fund, the lack of a uniﬁed view of the problem of diferentiating the concepts of «archaism» and «historicism», which complicates the solution of lexicographic issues of the modern Karachai-Balkarian language. It should be noted that the «Russian-Karachai-Balkarian Dictionary» (1965) was compiled on the basis of a ready-made Russian vocabulary without ﬁrst collecting the vocabulary of the studied language. Under these conditions, the ﬁrst translation dictionary cannot be free of shortcomings and gaps. Taking this into account, many practical questions need to be completed and resolved. The work draws attention to the need to supplement and improve the existing vocabulary of the «Russian-Karachay-Balkarian dictionary». The importance of special lexicographic design of dictionary labels for outdated vocabulary is substantiated.
