SUMMARY
The paper deals with the results of etymological analysis of a group of lexemes in the vocabulary of Eastern and Western (Polish) Slavonic languages. The aims of this study: а) to give the etymological explanation of several Slavonic lexemes, which hitherto have not been the object of linguistic analysis or examined as «not entirely clear» in the special literature; b) to clarify the etymological relations and the structure of the words which have already got a preliminary assessment in the investigations of the paper author predecessors. The treatment of these words enables not only to clarify their genetic relations to the cognates and determine the details of their structure, but also substantiate their Proto-Slavonic age, having supposed the areal limitation of corresponding Proto-Slavonic prototypes. It is about the following words: *balǫgъ or *bololǫgъ (along with Lith. Láng-a-balė, where inversion of the components is presented), *xomila, *obxobьje, *termъkъ or *tьrmъkъ, *tyr(ʼ)a, *vorma (the dialectal morphological innovation to the original *verma), *vьrgo-lykъ. Proto-Slav. *xomila, *termъkъ, *tyr(ʼ)a, evidently, belonged to the terminological (hunting, fishing and agricultural) vocabulary.
Key words: etymology, comparative-historical method, prototype, derivative, Slavonic languages.
