Oroks (Uilta) and Orochs are ethnic minorities in the Russian Far East. Lingustically they belong to Manchu-Tungusic family. The former people live exclusively on the Sakhalin island (Val, Nogliki, Poronaysk), the latter one live in the vicinity of Sovetskaya Gavan’. The languages of both peoples are either close to extinction (Orok), or apparently are already extinct (Oroch). The present paper deals with not numerous facts testifying to language contact between Oroks and Orochs presumably some centuries ago. Mostly these are lexical borrowings from Oroch into Orok. For the time being only one grammatical borrowing (from Oroch into Orok, too) is found. Especially interesting are 5 variants of the Orok name for the Poronay river: all of them indicate that Oroks borrowed the hydronym from a group of Orochs which migrated to Sakhalin from the continent.
