On Compiling a Dictionary of the Early Migration Dialect of the Vologda-Vyatka Group of the Northern Russian Dialect

Abstract

This article presents main arguments and preliminary information concerning features of the early migration dialect of the Vologda-Vyatka group of the Northern Russian dialect, primarily the vocabulary specificity of Loyma village dialect (Priluzsky district of the Komi Republic). The composition and content of the Loyma Dictionary reflect those traits. As an illustration, this paper presents several original dictionary entries of the gizaurus digital frame-thesaurus version of the Loyma Dictionary. The article briefly describes the main features and fundamental differences of the Loyma dialect from similar ones and the principles of including dialect materials in the dictionary. Creating the Dictionary of Loyma village Russian dialect presents the future possibility to include information about the lexical composition of the territorial (local) version of the early resettlement Russian dialect of the Vologda-Vyatka group of the Northern Russian dialect in the Dialectological Fund of the Russian language and in the general structure of the basic academic national dictionary fund of the Russian language.
