Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The language employed by the distinguished Azerbaijani poet Fuzuli markedly differs from that of his contemporaries and successors due to its linguistic richness. While his vocabulary includes many words of Arabic-Persian origin, our indigenous terms take precedence. Although the majority of these words remain in active use in our modern language, a certain portion has fallen into disuse, becoming archaic. Analysis indicates that while some of these archaisms were contemporaneous with the poet's era and those closely associated with it, the majority were extensively utilized in our language's oral and written literature from ancient times until the late 18th century. This article examines such archaisms found in the works of the master artist, elucidating their significance through concrete examples.
