ENThe article deals with regional features of the paremias from the collection Russian Proverbs of Lithuania (1992) and with new records from assembly of E. I. Kolesnikova - the bright representative of Old Believers in Lithuania. The loans submitted in work are subdivided on Polish - Belarus (main array), Lithuanian, Jewish, also their analysis at a lexical level is executed. Except for loans of separate lexical units (which, as a rule, are rassifications), loans of the whole proverbial texts and tracings are examined. Expression of novelty is a principal cause why loans are realized as more expressive and prestigious. In texts of paremias they often carry out art function, promoting creation of a precise rhythm and a rhyme, expressive figurativeness and sound recording. [From the publication]
