Summary/Abstract: The article examines the Khanty words which seem to be loaned from the Bulgar language. The phonetic and semantic analysis of their features is based on the Proto-Khanty reconstruction and data of the modern Chuvash language. It is established that the Bulgar loanwords have a broader representation in the Khanty dialects than the Siberian Tatar ones.
