Abstract

Based on onsite research conducted by the authors themselves, this paper provides parallel outlines of the Kajkavian Ikavian dialect of Hrebina and the Kajkavian Ekavian dialect of Kupljenovo in the surroundings of Zaprešić. Today’s phonological picture of these two genetically different dialects has been utilized to clarify some unsolved issues regarding the origin and development of Kajkavian Ikavian dialects in the proximity of Kajkavian Ekavian dialects. The analysis of both the prosodic and vowel systems has shown that the features of Kajkavian Ikavian dialects are most probably the result of manifold linguistic and extra-linguistic factors, while some phonological features (some of which could be considered typically Čakavian — e.g., ikavism, “pure” vocalism, a three-accent system — and some of which could be considered typically Kajkavian — e.g., e as the reflex of ə, the loss of post accent lengths, the appearance of metatonic circumflex in some categories) have been the basis for the assumption that the above-mentioned dialect are genuine Čakavian-Kajkavian and not Čakavian dialects.
