Trubarjev gmajn jezik kot osnova za prvo slovensko knjižno normo

Abstract

“Gmajn” literary language is based on the spoken language, which was familiar to Trubar from the Lower Carniola region. However, he upgraded it with Upper Carniolan, and with the language spoken in Ljubljana. “Gmajn” language is a synonym for Carniolan Language (kranjski jezik) which is known as being universally comprehensible. At the same time, “Gmajn” language is a language compromise for the Central Slovene Standard Language.

Osnova za knjižni gmajn jezik je živa govorica, ki jo je Trubar poznal iz dolenjskih krajev, nadgradil pa jo je z gorenjščino in ljubljanskim govorom. Gmajn jezik je sopomenka za kranjski jezik, ki je prepoznaven po splošni razumljivosti, hkrati pa gre za jezikovni kompromis, tj. skupni imenovalec osrednjeslovenskega knjižnega jezika.
