This dictionary provides a systematic analysis of Russian word
derivations, describing the etymology of 1500 central words in the
language. In the introduction, the author traces the development of
Russian vocabulary and focuses on factors that have affected
semantic and lexical change. In the main part of the book, a
typical entry gives the present meaning of the word, the dates of
the first appearance in the language and of subsequent meaning
changes, and details of orthographical, phonetic and social factors
that have affected its development. Cognate words in Russian and
other languages help to place each word in its linguistic context.
The dictionary is designed to be user-friendly, facilitating the
task of learning vocabulary and raising the language awareness of
students. It presents an interesting anaylsis of word derivation at
the same time as revealing factors that affect lexical development
and establishing links with other languages.
