Abstract

This paper describes the main characteristics of the language of the collection
of Čakavian poems and prose entitled Mene moja baba, written by Milena
Rakvin Mišlov, who was a native of Kali, on the island of Ugljan. The linguistic
features of her writing are compared with those of the local vernacular
of Kali. The analysis is made on the phonological, morphological, syntactic,
and lexical levels. The results of this comparison show that the Čakavian
poetry and prose of Milena Rakvin Mišlov faithfully reflects the features
of the local vernacular of Kali – that is, a conservative form of that variety –
with minimal deviations.

Keywords
