Summary/Abstract: The author analyses 35 words borrowed from Polish in the dialects of the Moscow area. The majority were borrowed from Polish by the Russian literary language of the 17th–18th centuries and subsequently entered the dialects. Some of the borrowings were adopted from the neighbouring Western and Southern dialects. In comparison to the borrowings of other Russian dialects, the influence of the Polish language on the Moscow dialects was insignificant.
