https://doi.org/10.24833/2410-2423-2019-4-20-50-55

Abstract

Anthroponyms often act as a frequency derivation component included in various toponyms in the Swedish language. The value of the derivational component may be different and structurally diffuse. The subject of the research is the semantic, derivational characteristics of toponyms with anthroponymic foundations. The material for the study was 105 language units from the Swedish and the Russian sources, selected by the continuous sampling method. The article specifies the main lexical meanings of anthroponyms as the producing bases, identifies the main types of derivational models; possible semantic links are determined. The article is intended for linguists, geographers, ethnographers and for all those who are interested in geographic names.
