On Formation of Nouns in the Dialect of Kastav
Sažetak
Although the importance of including the linguistic level of word formation in
descriptions of local Croatian vernaculars has been stressed over the past fifty years,
in the second decade of the twenty-first century, scholarly works on the presentation
and analysis of word formation are still scarce in Croatian dialectology.
The aim of this paper, which provides an analysis of the formation of nouns in
the dialect of Kastav, is both to contribute to the study of Croatian dialectal word
formation and to provide a more thorough description of this dialect at all linguistic
levels. The conducted research has resulted in the collection and analysis of
2,800 noun formations. Examples have been grouped according to type of word
formation – in the field of derivation, suffixal word formation proved to be the
most fruitful, while prefixal and prefixal-suffixal word formations were more poorly
represented; in the field of composition, verified clean suffixal word formations, composed-suffixal word formations, and word fusions were analysed separately.
Since a large number of verifications of the two marginal types of noun
formation, as well as transformation and syntactic-semantic formation, have been
recorded, this part of the corpus was also analysed in detail.
