Human speech is an amazing phenomenon not only in itself, but also due to the fact that we use words, most of which have existed for thousands of years. Just think, we communicate almost the same way our ancestors did dozens of generations ago! And even those words and expressions that seem mysterious and incomprehensible to a modern native speaker, upon closer examination, still turn out to be “familiar strangers.” One of them will be discussed in this article.

“Name” is a template word often found in prayer texts. Its meaning is that when reading a prayer, the “name” template is replaced with the name of the person praying or the one who should be mentioned in the prayer. In a text intended to be read by many people, the “name” temporarily replaces a name unknown to the author of the text.
Not everyone knows that in the Slavic language there was such a word “reklo” and it meant the “name” that was given by the parents to the child at birth, or another name, besides the godfather, given to a person according to the calendar, a nickname or patronymic. Therefore, the process of giving a name is called “naming,” as Voronets sang in the song “I look into the blue lakes” - “. They once gave me a Russian name here. ".
Thus, the name simply meant “named”, “received, having, bearing the name, advertised” Orthodox.
Often the advertisement was also secret (sacred), not called in vain. This is probably where in the modern Russian language “name” acquired the meaning “unnameable, unknown”
The meaning of the word “name” depends primarily on where it is used. So, for example, Dahl's dictionary tells us that this word is used in church books or state papers in those places where the use of someone's name is implied.
Although this word is now considered obsolete, it has not been lost since the depths of centuries; it periodically comes to the surface in the speech of the intelligentsia, especially those who write. Here is an example of the use of the word “imeyarek” in an interview with writer Mikhail Weller, in which he talks about producers of burnt alcohol:
In this case, imeryak is a somewhat ironic and disparaging synonym for a certain class of society.
The meaning of the word Namerek according to Ephraim: Namerek is a word that replaces someone. name or something Name; someone, such and such.
The meaning of the word Namerek according to Ozhegov: Namerek - So-and-so, so-and-so
Name in the Encyclopedic Dictionary: Name - (imrek) (from the Church Slavic expression the name of the river - “having named the name” - used in prayers, legal acts, etc. in the place where the proper name should be placed), in modern in Russian it is used instead of the name of an unknown or deliberately unnamable person to mean someone, such and such.
The meaning of the word Namerek according to Ushakov’s dictionary: IMYAREK and imrek, imreka, m. (Church Slavic namerek, lit. having named the name) (joking). Serves as a substitute for the name of an unknown person in the meaning. someone, such and such. (The original was used in legal acts or prayers in the place where the proper name of a person should be placed, meaning: such and such.)

Abbreviations for prayers adopted in prayer books
In prayer books and liturgical books, some frequently used prayers and even small series of prayers are not given in full each time, but are indicated abbreviated. Such abbreviations - for example, the abbreviation “Glory, and now:” - are found in almost all prayer books. This not only saves space, but is also very convenient for experienced readers and singers. However, a novice prayer book can sometimes be confused by abbreviations that are not yet familiar to him. Therefore, we provide for our readers a list of the most common abbreviations that can be found in prayer books.
There are much more abbreviations of this kind in liturgical books: they are designed for the reader to have a firm knowledge of a very wide range of prayers and chants. In the Church Slavonic tradition, the indicator of such a contraction is the colon (:) - it plays here a role similar to the role of the ellipsis (...) in modern Russian writing.
1.
“Glory, and now: (or: “Glory: And now:”) - Glory to the Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
“Glory:” - Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
“and now:” - And now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Attention! In the Psalter, each of the kathismas - the twenty parts into which the Psalter is divided for reading - is divided into three parts, after each of which it is usually written: “Glory:” (these parts are therefore called “Glories”). In this (and only this) case, the designation “Glory:” replaces the following prayers:. Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages.
Amen
Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, glory to You, O God. (Thrice)
Lord have mercy. (Thrice)
Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
2.
“Alleluia” (Three times) - Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, glory to Thee, O God. (Thrice)
3.
“The Trisagion. According to Our Father" or "Trisagion. The Most Holy Trinity... Our Father..." - the prayers are read sequentially:
Holy God, Holy Mighty, Holy Immortal, have mercy on us. (Thrice)
Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Most Holy Trinity, have mercy on us; Lord, cleanse our sins; Master, forgive our iniquities; Holy One, visit and heal our infirmities, for Thy name's sake.
Lord have mercy. (Thrice)
Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done as it is in heaven and on earth. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, just as we forgive our debtors; and do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
4.
The abbreviation “Come, let us worship...” should read:
Come, let us worship our King God. (Bow)
Come, let us worship and fall down before Christ, our King God. (Bow)
Come, let us bow and fall down to Christ Himself, the King and our God. (Bow).
5.
Instead of the Theotokos, we usually say: Most Holy Theotokos, save us, and instead of the Trinity: Most Holy Trinity, our God, glory to Thee, or Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
One of the names of a person
Reading ancient books, you may have come across a strange word more than once: namerek. "What it is?" - they asked themselves in bewilderment. Is it either a foreign word or meaningless gobbledygook? Don't rush to judge. This is a very old word that came to us from the Church Slavonic language. It was formed by merging two roots - name and rivers (rek). It turned out to be a name. What does it mean? Its first part - “name” - denotes the actual name of the person. “Rek” is the old form of the word “speech”, speaking, pronouncing this name. It was originally used in spiritual and prayer texts as an indication that in its place there should be: Vasily, Anna, Evgeniya, etc. That is, the personal name is the name. Not only priests, but also clerks know what it is. The expression was often used in official papers until the beginning of the twentieth century. It indicated that in this place the personal data (last name, first name, patronymic) of the person referred to in the document should be entered. There is also a synonym for the word named. What this is can be explained by another term - “exemplification”. It denotes a specific name or concept given as an example for the name of a place or person.
Another use of the word
In modern Russian, the expression “name” is quite rare in everyday communication. In dictionaries it is given with the note “outdated, bookish.” It is usually used in an ironic context to replace a specific someone's name. For example: “Ilya Ivanovich was a nervous, unbalanced and even somewhat violent person. Knowing that his neighbors, who mostly consisted of old women of advanced years, were pretty afraid of him, this name took advantage of this weakness of theirs, from time to time intercepting a penny “before payday”. But, as you know, people who don’t work don’t get paid, so God’s gray dandelions didn’t expect the loan to be returned.” By the way, I. S. Turgenev used this word as a pseudonym. This is how the name turns out!
Which name should be inserted into the prayer if (full name) is indicated?
Sometimes they write (name), well, that’s understandable, but what if (full name) is what?
For example: not Natasha, but Natalia,
not Alyosha, but Alexey
| Video (click to play). |
The prayer always mentions the name given at baptism, and in its full version. Well, like not Olya, but Olga.
Sometimes the passport name is different from the one with which you were baptized. Polina is baptized as Appolinaria, Vlada as Vladislava, etc. They also baptize with a completely different name those whose names are not Christian at all. As an example, Lilia, Ian, in the Orthodox Christian Church usually receive the names Lydia and Ivan. These names given at baptism must be spoken in full and in prayer.
Where and how is the word “name” used?
In addition to the meaning of the word “” in dictionaries, we also recommend that you familiarize yourself with examples of sentences and quotes from classical literature in which the word “” is used.

The mystery of the conspiracy
Prayer, like a conspiracy, has the strongest energy, thanks to which their magical effect on a person’s fate is realized. Connection to the age-old egregors occurs through the sacrament of the Word, special language “formulas” that connect a person and mysterious forces (of nature or higher) with invisible threads, which are called upon to help. What is a name in conspiracies? The same as in prayers. In place of this expression, the name of the person against whom the conspiracy is being made should be given. For example, here is such a useful conspiracy that protects a person from any deception, theft, or loss of money. You need to wrap some money (a bill or a coin) in a handkerchief and say: “I bow to the Lord, I pray to Michael the Archangel! I will renounce all dashing people, those who are evil in heart and in thoughts, so that they do not fool their heads, so that they do not take away money, do not cast a fog on God’s servant (name Natalya), so that they bypass them! Let it be so! Amen". Carry the enchanted warehouse (scarf with money) with you. According to experts (healers), this ritual can really protect a person from corresponding negative events.
