Summary

Hybrid formations with Turkish bases have not been studied so far, not only in Bulgarian, but also in other languages with Ottoman-Turkic influence, which makes the dictionary unique. It is intended primarily for linguists, but would also be of interest to researchers in various fields of Bulgarian studies, Slavic studies and Balkan studies in our country and abroad. Since the words that served as the basis for the presented hybrids were borrowed during the Ottoman Empire, the dictionary will also attract the attention of Turkologists. The work is a valuable aid for students of Bulgarian studies and Turkologists, who can use it as a basis for course and diploma theses. The problem of Turkisms and Turkisms in the Bulgarian language excites not only specialists, but also many teachers, journalists and other intellectuals tempted by etymology. The extensive information about the relevant lexemes, presented in the individual dictionary articles, expands the sphere of users.
