Etymology

edit

Inherited from Old East Slavic *хохолъ (*xoxolŭ), from Proto-Slavic *xoxolъ < *koxolъ. Compare Polish chochoł, Polish chachoł and Czech chochol.

The usage of хохол against Ukrainian people was derived from the оселе́дець (oselédecʹ), a traditional top-knot used by Ukrainian men. It acquired a derogatory connotation and is considered an ethnic slur as well as all the terms derived from it.

Pronunciation

edit

  • IPA(key): [xɐˈxoɫ]

    Что он видит: первое, папа сидит, естественно смотрит телевизор и говорит, что во всем виноваты эти козлы, эти скоты, эти политики чёртовы! между этим, пересчитывая 200 грн, которые вчера заработал на пикете, когда стоял за этих же козлов и вонючих депутатов. Это нормально - не стоит он, стоит кто-то другой! "А че это кто-то другой должен взять эти вороватые бабки? Почему не я? " - думает папа. Ребенок наматывает на ус и наш украинец по чучуть начинает превращать своего папу в этого хохла.

    Što on vidit: pervoje, papa sidit, jestestvenno smotrit televizor i govorit, što vo vsem vinovaty eti kozly, eti skoty, eti politiki čórtovy! meždu etim, peresčityvaja 200 grn, kotoryje včera zarabotal na pikete, kogda stojal za etix že kozlov i vonjučix deputatov. Eto normalʹno - ne stoit on, stoit kto-to drugoj! "A če eto kto-to drugoj dolžen vzjatʹ eti vorovatyje babki? Počemu ne ja? " - dumajet papa. Rebenok namatyvajet na us i naš ukrainec po čučutʹ načinajet prevraščatʹ svojevo papu v etovo xoxla.
    What he sees: first, Dad sits, naturally watches TV, and says, "These goats, these brutes, these damn politicians are to blame for everything!" Meanwhile, he counts the 200 hryvnias that he earned yesterday at the protest where he stood for these same "goats and stinking deputies." This is normal - he was not standing there, but someone else is! "And why should someone else take this stolen money? Why not me?" Dad thinks. The child gets into trouble and his dad turns our Ukrainian boy, little by little, into this khokhol.

Usage notes

edit

  • Originally the term was for Ukrainians, Belarusians and Zaporizhzhia Cossacks and also for simple people ("В князья не прыгал из хохлов..." A. Pushkin). The term was not always pejorative in Russia and is sometimes used by Ukrainians themselves in jest or ironically ("Українці мої! Дай вам Боже і щастя, і сил. Можна бути хохлом, і не згіркне від того хлібина..." V. Baranov (Ukrainian writer) - "My Ukrainians! May God give you both happiness and strength. You can be a khokhol, and bread will not turn sour from that ..."). There are proper names based on "хохол" - e.g. Хохол, Хохольский, Хохол-Тростянка, etc.
