Description
Summary:Continuing on previous research, in thispart of a paper series, a total of thirty-nine newly found suggested borrowingsfrom the Turkic, Tungusic and Mongolic (and Russian) languages into theYukaghir languages and dialects of far northeastern Siberia are presented asloanword etymologies, which is followed by the discussion of a few tentativecases. The chronology of the borrowings is considered, and solid phonologicaland semantic considerations are given for each suggestion, and other possiblecognates or borrowings in the surrounding languages are also discussed.Further, some transcriptional corrections to the documentation of olderYukaghir lexicon is suggested. The results again highlight the extensivehistorical social contacts between the Yukaghir populations and surroundingtribes.
