    Le dialecte natal: analyse de l’opinion des intellectuels et des villageois de Lituanie
    (2010-02-01) Kačiuškienė, Genovaitė
    In the article, based on a research questionnaire conducted in the Faculty of Humanities of the University of Adult Education of Šiauliai, we attempt to ascertain, 1) how the city’s environment and social dependence influence the conception of dialect and its usage, 2) how many intellectuals of Šiauliai of a mature age, who moved from their native region several years ago, still speak dialect or even standard Lithuanian and 3) what their attitude is toward different dialects.

    Nárek – izgubljen slovenski folklorni žanr
    (2010-02-01) Stanonik, Marija
    Laments and lamentation began to dwindle in the mid 19th century. Fortunately, they have been documented in the form of recorded texts and descriptions of the custom. The texts reveal surprising poetic intensity, driven by powerful experiences and emotions. The preserved ritual texts with ancient mythological features (Bela krajina), with data on their performance (Istria), and with indications of the deterioration of their original function (Resia) are outstanding documents of a past lifestyle (Prekmurje – Porabje). Modern lifestyles and ideas obscured the original meaning and sense of lamentation. Robbed of its spiritual significance, lamentation was for some time preserved as a social corrective (poor women were paid for it). Nowadays, lamentation is replaced by funeral speeches.

    Kako natančna je lahko transkripcija
    (2010-02-01) Ivič, Mira Krajnc
    The article attempts to show how a message of a direct dialogue gets its (illocutionary) force as the result of the interplay of linguistic, semi-linguistic and non-linguistic activities of the participant. It is also trying to show that researchers’ difficulties are the consequences of his or her wish to transcribe a dialogue perfectly, because only a perfect and theoretically non-neutral transcription can be used for several different purposes.

    Функционирование топонимов и этнонимов в речи литовцев Латвии
    (2010-02-01) Квашите, Регина
    The article deals with the research of lexis of Lithuanians in Latvia: attention is paid to two specific layers of vocabulary – toponyms and ethnonyms. During the research of toponyms, it was found out that the spectrum of toponyms was not very wide: the titles of both states dominated and among particular settlements – populated localities and those territorially close to them. Functioning of ethnonyms discloses interesting tendencies manifesting the opposition “nativeoutlandish”.

    Slovarsko gradivo Ftičarjevega romana Za nápršnjek vedríne
    (2010-02-01) Ulčnik, Natalija
    Za nápršnjek vedríne (2004, 2006) by Jože Ftičar represents the first Slovene novel written in dialect. In a broader sense it can be considered the continuation and upgrading of the old Prekmurje literary production. The present paper aims to analyze and evaluate the lexicographical material issued as a supplement to the novel. In it the author gathered almost 3,000 entries for items that he assumed the reader of standard Slovene would have difficulty understanding. The dictionary has also proven significant for Prekmurje dialect lexicography, since it includes entries that had not yet been registered.

    Izrazi za sneg in smuči v slovenski smučarski terminologiji
    (2010-02-01) Bokal, Ljudmila
    Snow and skis are the fundamental terms of skiing terminology. In the past a significant share of the terms in both concept groups thrived in dialects. From there they passed into the standard language, where they are now indispensable units of Slovenian skiing terminology. The vitality of this terminology is also evident in its responsiveness to new technological achievements (carving skis).

    Izoglose v prekmurskem narečju – regionalna geolingvistika
    (2010-02-01) Horvat, Mojca
    The paper contributes to Slovenian regional geolinguistics, which deals with linguistic phenomena on the regional level. To date regional areal linguistics has been applied in two of the Slovenian dialect groups, the Littoral and the Carinthian dialect groups. According to Mario Alinei, this type of linguistic atlas is defined as second generation atlases (while first generation atlases are national atlases, and the third atlases of language groups – e. g., OLA, and, finally, fourth generation atlases are those of nonrelated languages (continental atlas) – ALE. The importance of regional lingustic atlases will be presented by the case study based on linguistic maps representing Prekmurje dialect linguistic features. Considering the newest phonetical features, this dialect could be divided into three subdialects (dolinsko, ravensko, goričko). In the present paper, selected linguistic features will be presented on the regional linguistic maps with the method of the geolinguistics, as they are transcribed in the data base for Slovenian Linguistic Atlas.

    Slovene regional atlases: from SDLA-Ts to SDLA-SI
    (2010-02-01) Cossutta, Rada
    The paper focuses on the presentation of two Slovene regional dialectological atlases that significantly complement the Friulian atlas ASLEF: Slovene Dialectological Lexical Atlas of the Province of Trieste (SDLA-Ts) (1987) for the Trieste Karst and Slovene Dialectological Lexical Atlas of Slovene Istria (SDLA-SI) (2005–2006) for Slovene Istria. Their realisation undoubtedly represents an important achievement in the field of the dialectal lexis of Primorska, which documented and mapped in the mentioned two volumes.

    Cohesive means in Slovenian spontaneous dialectal conversations
    (2010-02-01) Kumar, Danila Zuljan
    In the first part the article discusses the relationship between textual coherence and cohesion, then it offers a classification of cohesive means for Slovenian conversational texts. In the second part the article presents the use of cohesive means in spontaneous spoken dialectal conversations. The use of co-reference means, i.e. ellipsis of pronouns, recurrences and partial recurrences, lexical relations (synonyms, antonyms, hypernyms, hyponyms, collocations and paraphrase); ellipsis (systemic and non-systemic) and parallelism are presented in detail.

    Mesto besedotvorja v raziskavah poljskih govorov in narečij
    (2010-02-01) Gala, Sławomir; Ostromęcka-Frączak, Bożena
    The paper highlights the role of word formation in defining Polish dialects and local dialects. Despite significant research accomplishments in word formation of non-standard Polish, the role of dialectal word formation is still insufficiently elucidated. The authors postulate further research in the field of dialects and local dialects.
