Summary/Abstract: The article deals with Mari musical terms extracted from the ten early editions of Mari music (1908-1937) by V. Vasil'jev, Ikumari (G. Leont'jev), I. Palantaj, J. Ešpaj, A. Iskandarov, G. Lobačev. Basically, these terms define genre, character, tempo, and dynamics, but there are also analytical terms relating to harmony, rhythm, texture, and form (mainly in the publication by V. Vasil'jev (Васильев 1937)). The article presents a dictionary of these terms. They are not only of historical significance, but can be useful in the contemporary development of the system of Mari musical terminology.
