Abstract

This paper analyzes the differences in Croatian folk names for Holy Week and the days of Holy Week. The analysis is based on examples from various Chakavian speeches from the indigenous population that inhabits this area since the arrival of the Croatians, and on examples of various Chakavian speech from the populace that inhabited the area after fleeing from central Croatia due to Turkish invasions. The author concludes that the names of holidays can be very clear indicators of the origins of the population of a given location or group of towns.
