Abstract

An etymological analysis of collected Istro-Venetian loan words shows that they are used in the Savrinian village of Krkavče. The existence of selected Istro-Venetian lexemes has been confirmed by well-known dialectological dictionaries (Great Dictionary of the Triestine Dialect, Doria, Manzini-Rochi, Durante-Turato), which contain the rich vocabulary of Veneto, Venetian, Istro-Venetian and Triestine dialects and often offer the etymology of the words. Loan words, included in this analysis, 23 per cent of which are Istro-Venetian, were found to be in the semantic fields of Customs and institutions as well as Life, marriage and family. The analysis included in this article, based on a written material, cannot yet offer clear and final rules on Istro-Venetian loan words in Savrinian idioms. It anyway offers a clearer insight into the rich Venetian vocabulary that has a special place in Savrinian terminology. The Neolatin, colonising (Venetian) idiom has flooded the already existent dialect or has emalgamated with it. A proof of that are also analysed hybrid words in which Istrian and Venetian linguistic elements merge together, evidencing cohabitation and connection between Romance and Slavic worlds. The purpose of further research work is to exactly define the occurance of Istro-Venetian loan words in a given area, and thus contribute to new important findings for Slovenian and Italian dialectology
