The funeral garment in the Slavic context

This paper was inspired by the work of Š. Ondruš, with the aim of expanding on his interpretations by providing additional information. The topic focuses on the terms for funeral garments in Old Church Slavonic and other Slavic languages, and seeks to uncover their origins and motivations. This is a specific area of lexicon that closely relates to national traditions, folklore, and similar aspects, making it particularly interesting to explore whether the Old Church Slavonic lexicon corresponds to the vocabulary of individual Slavic languages in this regard, or if the situation is different.
