A pertinent issue from a general literary perspective

Abstract

Namen prispevka je v glavnih obrisih prikazati pravorečne podatke v splošnem razlagalnem slovarju, obenem pa na podlagi analize izsledkov anketne raziskave ugotoviti potrebo po pravorečnem priročniku med zaposlenimi v medijih, gledališčih in filmski produkciji ter osvetliti najpomembnejše problemske sklope slovenskega pravorečja s stališča respondentov. V zadnjem delu prispevka je opozorjeno na primanjkljaj temeljnih raziskav govorjene knjižne slovenščine in pomembnost rednega spremljanja in zbiranja pravorečnih težav splošnih jezikovnih uporabnikov in strokovnjakov, ki se poklicno ukvarjajo z govorjenim knjižnim jezikom, izpostavljena pa je tudi potreba po premišljeno izdelanem korpusu, ki bi omogočal zanesljive pravorečne analize. The aim of this article is to present, in their main outlines, orthoepic data in the general explanatory dictionary and, at the same time, on the basis of survey analysis, to establish the need for an orthoepic manual amongst those employed in the media sector, theatres and film production industry, as well as to shed light on the most important problem areas of Slovenian orthoepy from the respondents’ point of view. In the last part, the article addresses the deficiency of basic research in the field of spoken Standard Slovene and the great importance of regular monitoring and collecting of orthoepic problems detected by general language users and experts, professionally dealing with spoken Standard Slovene. Another emphasis is also on the need for a well thought out corpus that would allow reliable orthoepic analyses.
