Abstract
The paper presents the areal distribution of dialectally specific lexemes,
specifically Croatian lexemes related to ‘back’, ‘spine’ and ‘shoulder blades’
using the method of linguistic cartography. The data collected through field
dialectological research have been systematically categorized into lexical types
and illustrated on interpretative maps, each accompanied by brief comments
on the observed distribution patterns. The second part of the paper provides an
analysis of Čakavian phraseological units containing these anthroposomatic terms.
A semantic-conceptual approach is applied to describe the thematic semantic
fields into which the extracted phraseological units fit. The aim of the paper is
to explore the productivity of these components in Čakavian phraseology, taking
into account all expressions that refer to the upper posterior part of the human
body. This analysis seeks to contribute to a deeper understanding of dialectal
variations and their implications in linguistic research.
