Abstract
The author aims to reconstruct the phonetic, morphological, semantic and chronological
peculiarities of three pairs of Mari words (wočko and pečke ‘barrel’, kaďilä and ká·δәn ‘censer’,
moľo and mŭľo ‘young fish’) borrowed from Russian dialects. She comes to the conclusion
that they can compose pairs as direct and indirect borrowings, different derivational
varieties of the same verbal stem or the phonetically resembling Mari representations of two
etymologically different Russian dialectal words.
