Abstract
The connection between life, life’s needs, and words are well known. Speakers
of the Slavonian dialect live near or between three large rivers: the Sava,
the Drava, and the Danube. The Slavonian dialect spreads along Croatia’s
borders both on Croatian territory and on the other side of its borders. Outside
Croatia’s borders, the Slavonian dialect also spreads along the river Sava in
northeastern Bosnia and Hercegovina in the Orašje region, near the river Danube
in Serbia in the West Bačka region, and near the river Drava in Hungary
in the Baranja region. Therefore, speakers of the Slavonian dialect know
a lot of lexemes from the semantic fields of fishing, river sailing, vessels, etc.
This article is about some well-known words from the semantic field of fishing
and life near rivers in the Slavonian dialect.
Keywords
words from the semantic field of life near rivers; lexemes; dialect; Croatian words; foreign words
