Summary/Abstract: With reference to the materials of the first volumes of the Dictionary of the Russian Folk Dialects, the article analyses the vocabulary of Russian dialects which was probably originated by Polish words. The main principle behind qualifying a Russian dialectal word as aborrowing from Polish is its location: the region of Smolensk and its surroundings, the territories of Lithuania and Latvia and some other areas. Different parts of speech and lexical and semantic classes of independent words are considered.
