Abstract

Mandić's orthographic manual Uputjene k' slavonskomu Pravopisanju za Potrebu narodnieh Ucsionicah u Kraljestvu Slavonie – Anleitung zur slawoniʃchen Rechtʃchreibung zum Gebrauche der Nationalʃchulen in dem Konigreiche Slawonien (Ofen, 1779.) is the only published manual for schools in the Kingdom of Slavonia before the Revival period. This article compares the orthography of the above-mentioned manual with the orthography of Slavonian linguists of the 18th century, namely Blaž Tadijanović (Svashta pomalo illiti kratko sloxenje imenah i ricsih u ilirski illi njemacski jezik, 1761.), Matija Antun Relković (Nova slavonska i nimacska gramtika – Neue slavonische und deutsche Grammatik, 1767.) and Marijan Lanosović (Neue Einleitung zur slawonischen Sprache, 1778.) in order to determine to which extent Mandić continues the work of his predecessors.
