Abstract. The paper discusses the etymology and history of the word ‘тухлый’ (rotten) in the Russian language. When the etymological nest is reconstructed with the root *duch-, to which the word in question belongs, the position of origin ‘тухлый’ (rotten) from the verb ‘тухнуть’ - "to become rotten, acquiring an unpleasant smell" is revealed and justified. On the basis of tracing the history of semantic development of the word from the pre-Slavonic to the modern state, the conclusion is made about its extensive compatibility and relevance of use in the modern Russian literary language.
