Burgenland Croats and Burgenland Croatian: some unanswered questions

Peter Houtzagers ; Faculty of Arts, University of Groningen, Groningen, Nizozemska

Abstract

The article gives an overview of the most important linguistic publications on the Burgenland Croatian dialects so far and concludes that our picture of these dialects is still far from complete. Two examples are given of unsolved questions that illustrate why a more complete picture than we have at the moment is necessary. The author wishes to point out that good quality linguistic fieldwork in this region deserves higher priority than it is given now, especially since the dialects are dying out so fast.
