Ljudevit Jonke about Foreign Words in the Croatian Literary (Standard) Language

Stojan Vrljić

Abstract

Ljudevit Jonke devoted a great part of his scientific work to the problem of foreign words in the Croatian literary (standard) language, because the problem of foreign words fitted into the overall struggle for the survival of the Croatian language in the hard times Jonke lived in. He did not fight against all foreign words in the Croatian language, especially not against those that had been properly created and functionally used. What Jonke fought against were the unnecessary foreign words in the Croatian language that were often a result of dictates and forcible influences.
