This article examines lexical peculiarities of the Guladtynsky subdialect of the Sirkhin dialect of the Darginian language, which belongs to the Nakhsk- Daghestanian subgroup of languages of the Indo-European branch, based on large quantities of factual material. The author has carried out a comparative characteristics of the literary language lexis and the major groups of dialectisms of the subdialect under study. Phonetic and morphological principles of the dialectal Guladtynsky lexis formation, its difference from common Darginian words in regular sound correspondences and processes in the system of vocalism and consonantism have been defined. A group of lexical and semantic dialectisms that are an integral part of the subdialect has been singled out. The author emphasizes that there are also loanwords from the Arabic, Russian, Iranian, Turkic, and other languages in the vocabulary of the Guladtynsky subdialect. Characteristic features of the formation of some groups of dialectisms have been revealed during the research, for instance, the presence of long vowels that the researchers used to consider not corresponding to the Darginian language, its dialects, and subdialects. As a result, it can be stated that actually Guladtynsky lexis appeared in the period of isolated existence of the subdialect. Lexical neologisms played an important role in its formation. They appeared on the basis of the primordial and borrowed vocabulary by means of affixation, disintegration of the words  meaning. The author gives a brief characteristic of lexical peculiarities of the Guladtynsky subdialect, the study of which is nowadays relevant not only because it contributes to the accumulation of rich factual materials for comparative phonetics and morphology of the Darginian language and helps to clarify some facts of its historic development, but it also considerably enriches lexis of the Darginian literary language.
