Recently in our native Russian language more and more new words.Defining certain we can give virtually no problems, even without thinking and choosing phrases.And there are those that deal with the situation is quite different.You think this is some very rare lexical units?Not at all.For example, try to finish the statement: "Cross - is ...".However, it is impossible to answer unequivocally?But this word has for several years been on the tongue, not only Muscovites, but also many Russians as a whole.
This article will discuss just about the representatives of this nation.Readers will get answers to many questions, including about who is actually Hach, whence came the word and what is its etymology.In addition, will be affected by issues relating to the history, culture and traditions of a people, as it turns out, is quite common in the Russian nation.
Cross - it ... give a general definition of
Eating in his vocabulary the word itself or the diminutive version of the supposedly "Khachik", few people think about its true meaning.Lexical unit itself is derived from a form of the name Armenian Khachatur - Khachik.Colloquially it is most common in relation to persons of Caucasian nationality and is today considered a national offensive nickname.Although previously they called almost all Armenians, say, or the Tartars.But, as many of the words of the Russian language, the word has lost its original meaning and turned into slang.Initially, as in the Russian language was used only form of "Khachik" corresponding to the common names.And she was, as often happens with national nicknames, eventually reduced to the form "Cross."
Etymology
Translated from the Armenian language "Cross" - a "cross" and "Khachik" respectively - "cross".Therefore, at first glance, these words have little or no relationship to any humiliation of certain nationalities.In addition, according to many, their use in speech can express direct hostility to the Christian faith.
scientific approach
Since both these words are of Armenian descent, and people of a given nationality is Christian, then, in fact, their use in an insulting manner is to be applied to the natives of Armenia.But now due to lack of awareness of the meaning of these words are used as a shortcut for all persons of Caucasian nationality.
whom we call hachami
Interestingly, in the modern Russian language it practically has no direct relationship to the Armenians and refers to people of non-Slavic appearance, living in the south-western part of the country.For local residents of Belarus and parts of Russia, historically unrelated to the Caucasus, as well as other nationalist-minded people, "Cross" - is now the nominal concept to all Caucasians.Although rarely so called, and the followers of Islam, and this is due, probably, to the similarity of the national mentality, traditions and moral-ethical qualities of the indigenous population of the Caucasus, Asia and the Middle East.
Tatars - is Hachi?The remarkable these people?
Most of the first born of the Tatars in Tatarstan, while the rest related to other Russian regions, where their ancestors lived.In our time, in Tatarstan, together with people of different nationalities live a quarter of all Tatars.Another part of them are scattered throughout Russia, as well as near and far abroad.In general, the birthplace of the nation can be considered almost the whole of Russia.The ancestors of the modern representatives lived in Tambov and Novgorod region, in the Northern Black Sea coast, in Mordovia, in the lower reaches of the Volga, Oka and Don, as well as the lands of the Kuban.Many of the Russian Cossacks, Ukrainians inhabiting these places are already relatives of the Tatar people.
process of ethnogenesis of Tatars has a difficult path, and the whole history of the Turkic people is closely connected with the Slavic ethnic group.Many generations of peoples living side by side, talked and created a joint family, served in the Russian army, while preserving Islam.Even now, many Tatars play an important role in many areas of political, economic, scientific and cultural life of Russia.Of course, a friendly relationship between Tatars and Russian are not always going well.History remembers the siege and capture of Kazan by Ivan the Terrible in 1552 and the Decree of Peter I of forced baptism of nobles of the Islamic faith in 1713.But in turn, the Russian people had a hard time during the Tatar-Mongol yoke.In spite of everything, these historical events are eventually brought together and rock the nations.
In general, we have answered the above question.It turns out that the Cross - is, first of all, people of non-Slavic appearance.However, whether or not to use the word in the modern Russian language?Indeed, despite the harmless meaning and etymology is quite reasonable, it can hurt or disappoint a good man, a representative of a rich culture.The conclusion is clear.
