Towards the Typology of Nakh-Daghestanian Languages: the Morphological doption of Arabic Loan-Words

The typological aspect of the morphological adoption of Arabic loan-words by eastern Caucasian languages is considered in this article. The loan-words take the characteristic signs of the basic vocabulary. So the loan-words take place among the corresponding groups of speech parts. This have influence on their morphological and syntactical signs. Also we should mention the distribution of loan-words into the grammatical classes and deklination system, that often promotes the loss of their initial property of word-formation.
