“…The research methodology was inspired by the research on cognates, specifically Rychło (2019), as illustrated in several case studies (Rychło 2012(Rychło , 2013(Rychło , 2014b(Rychło , 2017(Rychło , 2018(Rychło , 2021Rychło and Witczak 2021). This methodology is mainly based on comparative analysis and includes an assessment of the time (stage 1) and scope (stage 2) of attestation, as well as a morphological (stage 3) and phonological (stage 4) analysis.…”

The aim of this paper is to trace the etymologies of the English words bear, lynx and wolf and their Polish equivalents niedźwiedź, ryś and wilk within the context of Indo-European languages in terms of the mechanisms for creating euphemisms to denote animals subject to the phenomenon of linguistic tabooization. The methodology comprises the following stages: selection of cognates (to determine the scope of attestation); examination of the semantic features of the selected vocabulary; and an attempt to outline the problem of the functional features of euphemisms to denote tabooed vocabulary. The results of these considerations can contribute to concretising our ideas about the linguistic constitution of the surrounding world by past language users and linguistic interrelationships, as well as help reveal the peculiarities of euphemistic vocabulary conditioned by the functioning of linguistic taboos.

The paper investigates the etymologies of several species of reptiles, amphibians, and birds whose names draw on the ancient cattle-sucker myths rooted in cultures of Indo-European origin. New or corrected explanations are suggested for a number of animal names, including the Lithuanian žal(k)tỹs 'grass snake', South Slavic *guja 'snake, viper', Hittite akuu̯akuu̯aš 'toad', which seem to confirm a primitive conviction of prehistoric people that some frogs, toads, lizards, snakes, and even birds drink milk and are able to take it directly from udders.
