INTERESTING LINGUISTICS. THE MOST AMAZING LETTER OF THE RUSSIAN ABC

INTERESTING LANGUAGE

Forever remembering how surprised I was, how pleased I was peeped by chance there is a regularity in the language, and I decided sometime in the future to start writing books on "Entertaining Linguistics".

Scientific and entertaining books on linguistics by Lev Vasilyevich Uspensky (1900-1990) "You and your name", "The name of your house", "Why not otherwise? (Etymological dictionary of a schoolchild)", "According to the law of the letter" and others have gained the greatest popularity since the 50s of the past century. nine0004

L. Uspensky was a regular contributor to the journal Science and Life. And readers had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the chapters from his entertaining books long before they appeared on store shelves.

Lev Vasilyevich changed many occupations and professions: he was a topographer, teacher, farmer, assistant forester, worked as an editor, studied local history, compiled a dictionary of the Old Russian language. He was interested in biology and geography, paleontology and drawing, gliding and land management, literature and linguistics ... He became one of the six enthusiasts who founded in 1934 in Leningrad, a unique cultural and educational center - the House of Entertaining Science (DZN), in which he led the department of entertaining geography and entertaining geology, which aroused great interest among visitors of all ages.

At the beginning of the blockade, Lev Vasilievich volunteered for the front and fought as a fleet captain in the Baltic, and after the war he wrote scripts for radio and television programs, translated poetry (from several languages), acted as a publicist and philologist.

Readers of the older generation got acquainted with Lev Uspensky through his fiction and popular science books - about the myths of Ancient Greece, about the secrets of archeology, about the history of the city on the Neva. All of them are among those books that "Science and Life" advises to read without fail. nine0004

We offer readers a chapter from L. V. Uspensky's book "Words About Words"*, which was not published in the journal.

THE MOST AMAZING LETTER OF THE RUSSIAN ABC

Now you will be surprised.

Open the volume of AS Pushkin's poems based on the famous poem "Through the wavy fogs...". Take a piece of paper and a pencil. Let's calculate how many different letters are contained in its first four quatrains: how many "a", how many "b", etc. Why? See. nine0004

Easy to calculate. The letter "p" in these sixteen lines appears nine times, "k" - seven times, "v" - six. Other letters are different. There is no "f" letter. So what?

Take a more voluminous work of the same poet - "The Song of the Prophetic Oleg". Do the same calculation here.

In the "Song" there are about 70 letters "p", 80 with something - "k", more than a hundred - "v" ... The letter "f" is never found here either. Here's how? However, it is quite possible.

Let's do the same experiment with Pushkin's wonderful unfinished fairy tale about the bear: "Like a warm spring time...". nine0004

It also contains 60 letters "p", even more "k", and even more so "v". But the letters "f" and here you will not find a single . Now this is getting weird.

What is this - an accident? Or did Pushkin deliberately choose words without "f"?

Do not count further. I'll just tell you: take "The Tale of the Butt...". Among the many different letters, you will not find "f", no matter how much you search. Leaf through "Poltava" and your surprise will increase even more.

There are about 30,000 letters in this magnificent poem. But neither in the first, nor in the third, nor in the fifth thousand will you find the letter "f". Only after reading four or five pages out of fifteen will you stumble upon it for the first time. You will meet this on the 378th line of "Poltava" in a mysterious phrase:

In the darkness of the night they,
like thieves...
Compose numbers
universals...

"Universals" in the Ukrainian language of those days were called hetman's decrees, and "digits" then meant what we now call "cipher" - a secret letter. In this word, the first letter "f" is found.

Having read "Poltava" to the end, you will meet it two more times in the same word:

Anathema thunders in cathedrals...
Once a year, anathema until now,
Threatening, the cathedral thunders about it...

"Anathema" means a curse. The traitor Mazepa was cursed in all churches.

Thus, among the 30,000 letters of "Poltava" we found only three "f". And "p", "k" or "g"? Yes, there are certainly hundreds, if not thousands. Well, Pushkin had a clear disgust for one of the letters of the Russian alphabet, for the innocent letter "f"?

Certainly not. Study the verses of any other of our classical poets - the result will be the same. The letter "f" is not present either in Lermontov's "When the Yellowing Cornfield Is Waved" or in Krylov's "The Crow and the Fox". Is she hated by them too? nine0004

Apparently, that's not the point.

Pay attention to the words in which we found the letter "f" in "Poltava". Both of them are not Russian in origin. A good dictionary will tell you that the word "number" has penetrated into all European languages ​​from Arabic (it's not for nothing that our numbers themselves are called, as you know, Arabic), and "anathema" is a Greek word. This is a very curious fact for us.

In Pushkin's "The Tale of Tsar Saltan" the letter "f", as in "Poltava", occurs three times, and all three times in the same word - "fleet". But after all, this word is not Russian, it is of international circulation: in Spanish the fleet will be "flota" (fleet), in English - "fleet" (fleet), in German - "Flotte" (fleet). All languages ​​used the same ancient Roman root: in Latin, "fluere" (fluere) meant "to flow" (of water). nine0004

An unexpected thing is discovered: every word of the Russian language, in which the letter "f" is written at the beginning, at the end or in the middle, in fact turns out to be a word not originally Russian, but that came to us from other languages ​​and has international circulation.

Thus, "focus" meant "hearth" in ancient Rome. "Lantern" in Greek means "lamp". "Coffee" is borrowed from the Arabs. "Morocco", "taffeta", "sofa" came to us from other Turkic countries of the East.

The same with our proper names: Foka means "seal" in Greek; Fedor (more precisely, Theodore - Theodore ) - "God's gift" in the same language, etc. Looking through any good dictionary of the Russian language, you will find literally a dozen or two such words with "f" in it, which are found only in Russian speech . And what are these words! "Snort", "fuk" are clearly onomatopoeic formations or artificial, and for the most part also onomatopoeic, made-up words like "fuflyga", "figly-migly", "fal", "fufan". nine0004

This kind of "word" can be invented for any sound that is not even in the language: "jack", "cack", etc.

Now everything is clear.

Great Russian writers and classical poets wrote in pure, truly folk Russian. In his abundant and rich vocabulary, words that came from afar, borrowed always occupied a secondary place. Even fewer of them contain the letter "f". So is it surprising that it is found so rarely in the works of our Slavic word artists? nine0004

Don't just take my word for it. Unfold your favorite books and for the first time in your life re-read them not from the usual reader's point of view, but, so to speak, from a linguistic one. Take a closer look at the letters that make up the words of these books. Take a look at them. Ask yourself, for example, the following question: are those of the words that begin with the letter "f", are they the same as all the others, or do they also have some kind of peculiarity?

You are reading Boris Godunov.
