Toropets. A city in the Tver region. It was first mentioned in the Laurentian Chronicle in 1074 as a border town of the Smolensk Principality. In the XII century, the city became the center of the appanage principality. The first prince here was Mstislav Rostislavovich the Brave-the son of the Smolensk Prince (City of Russia. Encyclopedia). The city got its name from the Toropa River, on which it stands (modern times). Toropitsa River). Hydronym is considered to be Slavic, Russian, correlating with hurry, "move quickly, go". This refers to the rapid and rapid flow of the river. This assumption is supported by the fact that on the Toropa River at its confluence with the Western Dvina there is a large rapid, and on the Sheksna River there is a rapid with the name Toropets (Popov. Traces of times gone by). But there is reason to see in the hydronym a pre-Indo-European basis (Ageyeva. Hydronymy of the Russian North-West as a source of cultural and historical information).

The settlement of Tosno was first mentioned in 1500. At the beginning of the XVIII century, on the site of a small village, Yamskaya Sloboda appeared on the "Big Road", laid from St. Petersburg to Moscow. In the settlement lived coachmen who were serving the " mail chase "(Cities of Russia. Encyclopedia). The hydronym Tosna (an earlier form of Tosna) is still mysterious. Some researchers bring it closer to the Old Russian tsn "narrow, narrow" (Kislovsky. Do you know? Dictionary of Geographical Names of the Leningrad Region). It is possible that the repeated hydronym Tsna (< Sna < Tsna), known in the territory of the former distribution of Finno-Ugric languages and clucking Russian folk dialects, is of the same origin. See Tsna, Desna, Pine.

Trubezh. The name of two small rivers in the central territory of Russia: one flows into Lake Pleshcheyev near the town of Pereslavl-Zalessky, the other-the Oka Channel near the city of Ryazan. There is also the Trubezh River in the Dnieper basin, near the city of Pereslavl-Khmelnitsky in Ukraine. Derivatives of the hydronym Trubezh are known in the territory of the Slavs in the basin of the Vistula, Dnieper, and Oka. There is reason to see in it the hydrographic term pipe of a "channel, arm, branch of a river". In the sense of "channel", it is known in Russian folk dialects and in written monuments of the Russian language of the XVI-XVII centuries, "arm of the pond", "place where water flows out of the pond" - in the dialects of Czech and Slovak languages. This assumption is confirmed by the fact that Trubezh near Ryazan is still a channel; Trubezh near Pereslavl-Zalessky on the maps of the General Survey of Russia of the XVIII century also has a pronounced configuration of the channel, dried up in places. It is possible that Trubezh Dneprovsky in the distant past was a channel between the Dnieper and Desna through the Bystrica and Oster rivers. As for the suffix-ezh (- izh, -yaz), it often forms hydronyms in the Dnieper basin (Lyubezh, Litizh, Nityazh) and in the Oka - Volga interfluve (Inevezh, Kuchebizh, etc.). Previously known assumptions about the connection of the hydronym Trubezh with truba without specifying the meaning of the appellative (Toporov V. N., Trubachev O. N. Linguistic analysis of the hydronyms of the Upper Dnieper region), as well as with the common Slavic root *1ch - Russian "rub" cannot be considered convincing, since they do not have sufficient linguistic and nominational arguments.
