Etimologicaly analysed Slovenian dialectal lexems, collected for the Slovenian linguistic atlas (SLA), are compared with Croatian lexems, collected for Slavic linguistic atlas (OLA) and European linguistic atlas (ALE). The dialectal material is supplemented with data from scientific and belletristic literature and dictionaries.
