BORROWED WORDS IN NATIVE SPEECH: ENRICHING THE LANGUAGE OR THE ALIEN SYMBOL?

General questions of functioning of borrowed words in native speech are revealed. It is noticed that there is no language in the world that is completely free from influences of foreign words. The native speech of the person is sated with borrowings. The long political, economic, military, cultural relations between countries enrich the language with borrowings. The use of foreign words in speech has a certain stylistic role, most clearly manifested in various functional styles, for example, in the scientific style, in the journalistic style, in the official business style and the artistic style. Constant borrowing contributes to an increase in the share of foreign words and a decrease in the proportion of Russian words. Borrowing enriches the foreign part of the language; the original part of the language is remained untouched. The introduction of foreign language elements into the speech clogs the native language. The use of borrowed words without the semantics leads to speech inaccuracies. We emphasize that the idea of clearing the language of unnecessary borrowing becomes urgent, it becomes obvious the necessity of using foreign words in accordance with the meaning of such words. A conscious attitude to the use of foreign words will help to avoid speech errors and preserve the purity of speech. We focus on the ambiguous attitude of native speakers towards the use of borrowed words in the process of communication.
