Abstract

The paper presents a terminological description of vocabulary concerning family relations in the Čakavian group of dialects of Croatian language. Only one relation is taken into consideration, the one meaning ‘my sister’s daughter’, ‘niece’. Dialectological data recorded on the territory of Čakavian dialects is excerpted from the questionnaires for Croatian linguistic atlas and available dialectological dictionaries. The lexemes are compared to historical dictionaries of Croatian, as well as those of modern Standard Croatian. The lexemes are: bratučeda, nećakinja, neputa, nevoda, nevča, sestrična, rodica...
