The article presents an ethnolinguistic study which recreates the image of the German world through the eyes of the White Sea coast inhabitants. This image was formed over the centuries due to the intensive Russian-German contacts in the White Sea area, such as military campaigns (language traces, for example, were left by the war with Sweden during Peter the Great’s time and by foreign interventions during the Civil war) and the closest trade and cultural relations established between the Russian Pomors and Scandinavians since ancient times. To reconstruct this image, the author analyses the North Russian dialect’s common words and proper names derived from “German” ethnonyms and toponyms, as well as secondary ethnonyms (ethnic nicknames) denoting the representatives of the German peoples. An important source of material is unpublished data from the databases of the Toponymic Expedition of the Ural University and the Arkhangelsk Region Dictionary. Primarily, the present work investigates the vocabulary of three thematic groups: “Geographical space” (which characterizes the Pomors’ perception of space as Russian in opposition to German/Swedish/Norwegian, gives examples of the Pomors’ adoption of the German toponymy, etc.), “Man” (where designations of the representatives of the German peoples used in the Pomors’ speech, as well as semantic derivatives from the ethnonyms Swedish, Norwegian, etc., are analyzed), “Material culture” (listing the names of everyday realities (clothes, tools, dwellings, etc., such as Danish headscarf, Swedish axe, Norwegian spinning wheel) as being German or being perceived as German).
