Abstract
This article examines the phenomenon of German-Slavic hybridity of the word formation and semantics of Yiddish prefixed verbs with the hybrid polysemous prefix op- as an example. It provides definitions of such notions as hybrid language and hybridization, outlines the genetic origin of the prefix op- and proposes a classification of situation types described by prefixed verbs with op-. The article writer compares word-forming and semantic characteristics of Yiddish verbs with op- prefix to German verbs with ab- and Slavic verbs with od-/од-(від-)/ад-, demonstrates that verbs with op- represent a situation either following a common German-Slavic or a Slavic model.
