ON MASCULINE COMPLEX PERSONAL NAMES’ DERIVATIVES IN EAST SLAVIC LANGUAGES

Ivan Chobanov

Abstract


A wide-spread way of reducing complex personal names is dropping off one of the nuclear morpheme and retaining the other with the observance of the mоrpheme limit. Roots obtained with the help of that model are defined as hypocoristic. They are used in the formation of new names. The paper reveals that the count of compound masculine personal names in all East Slavic languages (Russian, Belarusian and Ukrainian) is limited, and the count of hypocorisms is limited, too.

Keywords


derivation, hypocoristic formants, hypocorism, reduction
