How do I highlight text linked to from a separate webpage?

To.by Te.array :

I have a webpage with links to specific words that are in another page which only contains text.

Every single word in the text-page is wrapped with an <a> anchor tag having a unique ID like this:

<a id="a">Капитанская</a>
<a id="b">дочкаБереги</a>
<a id="c">Капитанская</a>
<a id="d">дочкаБереги</a>

And in the web-page there are links to those words that look like this:

<a href="website.com/text-page.html#a">Капитанская</a>
<a href="website.com/text-page.html#b">дочкаБереги</a>

I need to find a way to highlight the word I'm linking to with a colored background or something like that.

I'm using JavaScript, HTML, CSS and PHP for both the webpages, and don't have the ability to use anything else.

On your text page, you can just retrieve the id from your url using the hash property from the window.location read-only property and assign a background color to the text element that has that id like this:

//get the id from the URL
const link = window.location.hash.split('#')[1];

//add a class to the element that has that id
document.getElementById(link).classList.add('highlighted');
.highlighted {
  background-color: green; //add background color to that element
}
<a id="word1">word1</a>
<a id="word2">word2</a>
<a id="word3">word3</a>
<a id="word4">word4</a>
<a id="word5">word5</a>
<a id="word6">word6</a>
<a id="word7">word7</a>
<a id="word8">word8</a>
