Abstract:
Syunik and Artsakh (Kharabagh) are the greatest dialectical areas in the Armenian language which has a rich vocabulary. In the dialectical vocabulary there are large number of words of Indo-European origin whichare missing not only in other dialects but also in many languages of Indo-European origin. One of the problems of comparative linguistics is that etymological studies do not pay much attention to dialectical vocabulary. The study of the words of the thematic group “Sensory Perceptions” can provide important material on the religious-philosophical issues of the peoples living in the historical area. An attempt was made to study the old words of the dialect area of Syunik and Artsakh, which refer to “sensoryperceptions”.In this work a new dialectical work is being etymologized: shapaghwith the meaning “1.Reflexion, flash, 2. Radiant, bright, shiny” which has a different phonetical and semantical version in the Armenian translation of the “Bible”: shaghpaghp. An attempt was made to check the word simultaneously and to discover its perception in the most ancient examples of the translation of the Bible by using the historical-comparative method.Often, through the etymology of archaisms preserved in the language, valuable information is revealed about the reli-gious-philosophical understandings of the ancient world.
