Тематиката на книжка 3 за 2022 г. на списание „Български език“
The first part of Balgarski ezik’s Issue 3/2022 features three articles on novel research approaches in Bulgarian language teaching. The talks were presented at a scientific forum of the same name organised by the Institute for Bulgarian Language in 2021. Corinna Leschber’s paper titled Regarding the Origin of Certain Bulgarian Shepherd Terms deals with Bulgarian shepherd terms belonging to the common Balkan and Carpathian lexis. While their origin has, for the most part, been clarified with respect to the way in which the words had entered the language and the linguistic relationships established among languages, an unresolved etymological issue remains their original source and the uncovering of the deeper linguistic layers in a broader Paleo-Balkan, Indo-European and possibly pre-Indo-European context. Elena Kanevska and Simeon Marinov study the Names for the Elements of Rhodope Men’s Traditional Clothing on the basis of material from ethnographic, regional and dialectological studies and the authors’ personal archive. The paper offers an ethnographic and lexico-semantic description of the empirical dialectal material along with an analysis of lexical sets with two or more heteronyms, phonetic and word-formation variants and instances of heterosemy. In the paper Is Brussels Contributing to Gramatical Change in Bulgarian Language? based on the experience of the Bulgarian Language Unit within the General Secretariat of the Council of the EU, Viara Bourova and Valeriya Nikolova explore the influence that the texts of the EU institutions have on the grammatical changes observed in Bulgarian. Based on the analysis of three phenomena in modern Bulgarian grammar, the thesis is illustrated that the influence of the language of European institutions is moderate and nuanced.
