Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the study of Czech lin guis tic influence on the religious terminology of Polish, Slovak, Upper and Lower Lusatian, Polabian, Belarusian, Ukrainian and Russian languages from the beginning of their writing period to the 17th century. A his to ri cal- e ty mo lo gi cal analysis of 82 potential Bohemisms was carried out, which were divided according to their origin into five groups (A, B, C, D, E). The 50 words that have been adopted from Czech into West Slavic and East Slavic languages both directly and in di rectly can be con si de red Bohemisms. It has been possible to explain the geography of the pe ne tra tion of Bohemisms into other Slavic languages and the extent of their adoption.
