The article considers the issue of lexical borrowings from the Romanian language present both in the dialect of the Ukrainians of Bulaesti village (Orhei district, Republic of Moldova) and in the Ukrainian dialects of Bukovina. The comparative analysis demonstrates that 42% of the dataset (407 borrowed from Romanian language words into the Bulaestian dialect) have not any analogies in the Bukovinian dialects. Also, 12% of these Bulaestian words have some analogies in the Bucovinian dialects, but with some differences in semantics, phonetics or stress (sometimes they differ in all three aspects).
