The current article discusses the data that prove the hypothesis of Russian-Manchu contact language functioning in the city of Blagoveshchensk (the Amur region) at the beginning of its history as a result of communication between new-coming Russians and native Manchu population. Evidences of regional Russian and Manchu lexical units mergers in the language structure are demonstrated.
