INTRODUCTION. Problems of dialogue of cultures and dialogue of languages on the Russian -Chinese borderland are currently actively attracting researchers. In the process of interaction b etween ethnic groups on the eastern section of the border between Russia and China, an exchange of information inevitably occurs, which is contained in political statements, media texts, works of science, technology, fiction, as well as through spontaneous information flows during informal communication between communication participants. The purpose of the study is to describe the interaction of languages on the Russian-Chinese borderland. MATERIALS AND METHODS . The material consists of recordings of speech of residents of the Far East. The main method is descriptive, which includes procedures for collecting material, its primary analysis, presentation of the results obtained and their characteristics. Elements of the comparative method are also used when comparing data from the Russian and Chinese languages. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION. It is necessary to separate concepts such as “regiolect” and “regionalism”. There is no special regionalect in the Far East, but the peculiarities of the speech of the inhabitants of the Outer Manchuria and Primorye regions include regionalisms, which are always represented in dialects, sociolects, and urban speech throughout the territories of distribution of the Russian language. CONCLUSION. The main interaction between the cultures and languages of the Russian and Chinese peoples occurs on the eastern section of the border between the countries, where more than 80 million people live. In the Russian-Chinese borderland, Chineseisms are noted in Russian linguistic culture and Russianisms in Chinese. Russian and Chinese onyms of all categories are widely represented in the speech of residents on both sides of the border, which function in dialect, urban speech and are included by writers in literary texts about the lives of people on both sides of the border.
