Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the culture-historical and linguistic-historical context in use of terms Rusin – Rusnak (rusnak) in the West Slavic language milieu. The application of this term is evidenced in the context of the Byzantine-Slavic confessional tradition in the Carpathians and in the Eastern Slovakia as a sign of confessional, social as well as ethnic identity.
