Lexems of Oriental origin in phraseologisms relating to humans in the language of Slavic Muslims in Bosnia

Abstract

V članku so predstavljene in analizirane frazeološke enote v jeziku bosanskih muslimanov s sestavinami orientalskega izvora, ki označujejo človeka. Upoštevane so starinske in sodobne jezikovne enote. Z jezikovnega in kulturnega vidika so raziskani in komentirani izrazi, ki označujejo osebe in določajo njihov intelekt, naziv, položaj, poklic itd. ter se danes aktivno uporabljajo v govorjenem sodobnem jeziku v muslimanski Bosni in na slovanskem Balkanu. Rezultat petstoletne prevlade Otomanskega cesarstva na Balkanskem polotoku je na jezikovni ravni prevzeta leksika iz staroosmanskega (staroturškega) jezika, ki je postal izvorni jezik posrednik, prek katerega so južnoslovanska ljudstva prevzemala arabizme in persizme, skupaj z njimi pa se v jeziku odraža tudi del vzhodne kulture, njena miselnost in vsakdanje življenje.

The authors discuss phraseological units of Bosnian Muslims with a semantically similar component such as an anthroponym of Oriental origin. The authors deal with both outdated phraseological units and those that are actively used nowadays. Due to the vastness of Oriental origin as a special genetic layer of South Slavic vocabulary, the authors analyse the expressions that denote a person in such aspects as intellect, title, position, occupation, etc., which are frequently used by Slavic Muslimsh, who live in Bosnia and Herzegovina and in the region of the Slavonic Balkans, in their everyday speech. The result of the five-century domination of the Ottoman Empire in the Balkan Peninsula is borrowing from the Old Ottoman (Old Turkish) language, which became both the source language and (often) the intermediate language through which Arabisms and Persisms entered the South Slavic recipient languages with part of Oriental culture and realities of everyday life.
