Borrowing as one of the most dynamic processes of modern languages, as a way of development and enrichment is an important linguistic issue has become topical in recent decades. In this paper we identified Persian loanwords in Russian language. Exploring the issue of Persian borrowings in the lexical-semantic system of the Russian language, we have attempted to classify them into thematic groups, showing the most intensive areas of their interaction. In this work also briefly examined the concept of borrowing, ways and types of borrowing, the causes of lexical borrowing in Russian language.
