Abstract

The prefixes pre-, pro-, pri- and pra- appear in Kajkavian dialects, but the prefix
pre- is the most abundant by far. It appears in place of the prefixes pro- and
pra-, while in some dialects it has been recorded place of the prefix pri-. Semantically,
this means that it covers much more meaning than in the other two Croatian
dialects. The prefix pro- appears in a limited, smaller number of lexemes in
the entire Kajkavian area. In recent times, a number of innovations with that prefix
have been introduced in many Kajkavian dialects.
