Nouns in –ičar of occidental origin in so called “Macedonian language”

The article thoroughly exemplifies all 168 headwords ending in -ičar in so called ‘Makedonski jazik’ (i.e. the official language standard of the Republic of North Macedonia) of Western European origin (Occidentalisms) in comparison with Standard Bulgarian as well as with Serbo-Croatian by tracing their origin and history of borrowing through Serbo-Croatian from German as their most plausible primary source. 

The language in question is labelled as “Yugo-Macedonian” – an author’s proposal in his previous publication. The primary conclusion was that those Occidentalisms give a more Serbian look to the whole lexical stock examined, wich contributes to the further distancing of Yugo-Macedonian from its Bulgarian character at least in its more sophisticated lexicon.
