Sanja Vulić ; Zagreb

Abstract

The article considers a variety of names of 10 holidays devoted to Jesus (Christmas, Epiphany, Palm Sunday, Good Friday, Easter, Low Sunday, Ascension-day, Whitsunday, Trinity, Corpus Christi) in about 20 different čakavian local dialects. An emphasis is put on the explanation of the creation of the names, and some specific dialectal characteristics mirrored in them are pointed out. The relationship between the folk names and the official church names is discussed as well.
