Abstract
Матеріялы до руского словаря – the Ukrainian-Polish manuscript dictionary by Josyf Skomorovski – consists of 5 volumes and 1732 pages. It was probably completed in 1849. The register of the Ukrainian dictionary has 27000 entries. In the Ukrainian part, there is a lot of phonetic and lexical polonisms as well as dialectical lexical items. Some Ukrainian dictionary entries were not translated – especially in the 4th volume. Some of the Ukrainian words were presented in two orthographical variants – Skomorowski initially tried to follow the rules of phonetic orthography, but then he verified the Ukrainian part in accordance with the etimological orthography. The dictionary is not free from translation errors, it also includes some Ukrainian lexicon which has not been confirmed in other sources.
