Abstract

The article examines and evaluates the Germanic (Frankish) loan words, functioning in modern French, from the point of view of their historical informativeness and the potential for explicating the phenomenon of Germanization of the Gallo-Roman language and the formation of the original lexical fund of the French language. The reference to this topic is conditioned by the fact that in modern domestic linguistics the information about the Franks and their language is fragmentary and mythologized, and the results of the studies published in French are not much taken into account.
