On Folk and Linguistic Etymology of Selected Toponyms in the District of Tomaszów Lubelski

Mariusz Koper



Abstract

This paper discusses folk and linguistic etymology of selected toponyms in the district of Tomaszów Lubelski. In particular, the author focuses his analysis on the following place names: Lubycza Królewska, Korczmin; hydronyms: Huczwa, Wieprz, Tanew; and microtoponyms: Gołda and Zamczysko. The semantic and structural analysis of the names in question reveals considerable discrepancies between the so-called naive etymology and the linguistic etymological analyses.

Keywords:

folk etymology, linguistic etymology, name, hydronym, toponym
