Из чешката и българската неология

Lexemes having the component еко- in their structure in standard Czech and in standard Bulgarian are investigated. They draw the attention because of the expansion of their spheres of use in the contemporary state of both languages. Explained are the extralinguistic and the linguistic factors conditioning the phenomenon. The comparative observation of the development, functioning, morphological essence, word-formation and nature of the current standard language processes leads to conclusions about a number of common as well as specific properties of the lexemes in question in the two Slavic languages.
