Reception of the Croatian Orthography Published by the Institute of Croatian Language and Linguistics
Slavica Vrsaljko
Sažetak
Along with several other orthographic manuals used at the time, in 2013 another orthographic
manual appeared on the Croatian orthographic scene – the Croatian Orthography
of the Institute of Croatian Language and Linguistics. According to some authors, this Orthography
has not fulfilled its original purpose to resolve numerous orthographic dilemmas.
Instead, it has brought additional confusion into the already orthographically confounded
general public. This paper will therefore discuss the public consultation about the Croatian
Orthography of the Institute of Croatian Language and Linguistics and reactions of the
profession and of the relevant institutions. (The consultation resulted in 396 comments that
can be found in the internet; this paper mentions only some of the most topical comments,
e.g. those on the writing of the forms and of possessive adjectives derived from foreign
common nouns and proper names, on omission of sounds, etc.)
Ključne riječi
