BORROWINGS IN THE STRUCTURE OF THEATRICAL TERMINOLOGY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE OF THE XVII - 80S OF THE XX CENTURY

Abstract

Professional theatre in England exists from the XVII century. Since that time English theatrical terminology rapidly develops constantly supplemented by the borrowings. Among the theatrical terms-borrowings introduced into the English language in the period of XVI - 80s of the XX century there are numerous direct and indirect Gallicisms, Latinisms and Grecisms as well as the units from the Italian, German and Eastern languages.
