False equivalents in Belarusian­Polish linguistics

Author(s): Radosław Kaleta
Subject(s): Language and Literature Studies
Published by: Instytut Slawistyki Polskiej Akademii Nauk

Summary/Abstract: The paper reviews false equivalents (in a broad sense of the term) in two Slavic languages: Polish and Belarusian. There are not many materials concerning Belarusian­Polish false equivalents, let alone a dictionary. Various types of Belarusian­Polish false equivalents are described and compared on the basis of examples taken from dictionaries and books. The analysis shows that false equivalents in Belarusian­Polish linguistics are a topic worth exploring that is yet to be described in a good monograph.
