Greek loans in economic terminology in the Russian language: historical context and modern usage

this article explores the influence of Greek borrowings on the economic terminology of the Russian language. The aim of the study is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of Greek loans, including their historical classification and contemporary usage. To achieve this goal, methods such as corpus analysis, structural analysis of terms, case studies, and both percentage and quantitative counting are employed. The research is based on a selection from various dictionaries, including economic and etymological sources. The results indicate that Greek loans in economic terminology have deep historical roots and diverse thematic groups. Key historical periods that facilitated the borrowing of Greek vocabulary have been identified, along with examples of literary works reflecting these borrowings. A quantitative analysis of modern economic terms with Greek etymology allowed for their classification by levels of usage and areas of application. The study's conclusions emphasize the importance of Greek loans in shaping economic terminology and their significance for understanding the historical and cultural context of the Russian language.
