SHIRT-GUY, MAN-SHIRT

Colloquial expressions shirt-guy, shirt-man approached the Russian literary language no later than the beginning of the 18th century.

In the Dictionary of the Russian Academy we read:

"Shirt... shirt... It is also said *in common usage about the insidious, very simple-hearted” (1794, part 5, p. 192). However, this expression was used until the middle of the 19th century. was of a regional nature. It was included in the “Experience of the Regional Great Russian Dictionary” (1852), where it is noted: "Shirt, and, p. and. A simple man, a simpleton. Eco guy shirt. Nizhegorsk." (p. 193). P. P. Dubrovsky, having found this meaning of the word in this dictionary shirt in the same expressive use, compared it with Polish. rubacha“fat, burly woman”; Wed And rubaszny“hefty, portly; rude, foul-mouthed"

The absence of a nasal sound in this nest of Polish words seems to indicate that the underlying root element rub- should be separated from the root element rQb-, which has become monophonic (chop, shirt, etc.).

Academician B. M. Lyapunov pointed out the need to separate from a series of words containing the root rQ b these groups associated with the root *rub-(cf. other Russian Ruthie from rubles in the meaning of “rob, tax”, Croatian. and they chort. rubiti“to rob, to take as collateral”, Slovenian. robiti, Italian rubare, German rauben. Wed. in Old Croatian Glagolitic texts: they cut one mark in the meaning of “extortion, violence”

Thus, the original meaning of the word shirt could be "a rude, strong, simple man." Suffix -aha attached to the root element rub- bright expressive familiar coloring.

Ushakov's expression shirt guy called colloquially familiar and for some reason placed under the word shirt“shirt” (vol. 3, pp. 1391–1392). Wed. right there: “Alexey came out of the house in a white canvas shirt, in blue ports. M. Gorky."

In I. S. Turgenev’s “Smoke”: “Grigory Litvinov, shirt-guy“Russian soul, I recommend it,” exclaimed Bambaev, leading Litvinov to a man of small stature and a landowner’s style...”

In P. D. Boborykin’s novel “China Town”: “I thought you would make Chichikov, but you - shirt man" In his novel “At the Damage”: “Do you know him from your priest? - How not to know, sir. Barin - shirt!.. And when you buy sheep from them... on credit.”

In A.P. Chekhov’s story “Duel”: “Samoilenko... saw in Laevsky a kind fellow, a student, man-shirt, with whom you could drink, laugh, and talk to your heart’s content” (chapter 1).

In M. Gorky’s story “The Orlov Spouses”: “So-and-so shirt-guy, A? A worker, he says, should always drink in moderation... do you hear, Motrya? Come on, pour me a glass, is there anything?”

In explanatory dictionaries of the Russian language in the “nest” of words chop“striking with a sharp weapon, to divide into parts; cut, chop" chop(cf. A. N. Tolstoy in the novel “Peter I”: “[Peter] pulled out a sword and slashed it across the table in the face of the recoiling generalissimo. Glass fragments flew”), chop– about coal mining in mines; chop"speak harshly, rudely, directly" chop"eat a lot and greedily" fight"to fight with cold steel" chop, shirt, shirt, shirt, shirt, shirt, shirt etc. expressions are also systematically included shirt-guy And shirt-guy. Yes, under the word shirt And shirt in the seventeen-volume dictionary (BAS, vol. 12, 1961, p. 1498 and 1499–1501) the phraseological unit is included shirt-guy, shirt-guy.

The manuscript has been preserved - five numbered sheets of different formats, two of which have become very yellow with age.

like this

Shirt Guy is a simple-minded, good-natured, cheerful, open, cheerful person. A kind of leader, easy to talk to, gets along with everyone on a first-name basis, today they say about such people “without complexes”
The origin of phraseological units is debated.
: the word “shirt” is of Polish, more precisely South Slavic, origin with the roots rub, rubacha and rubaszny “hefty, portly; rude, foul-mouthed"
: the word “shirt” is from the Russian expression “to chop”, which in turn means different actions: to cut, to chop, to cut coal in mines, to speak sharply, rudely, directly, to chop - to eat a lot and greedily, to chop - to fight with cold steel. That is, a “shirt guy” is a person who is direct, sharp, simple (common), brave, desperate
