Abstract

The records of the medieval Zadar notary Petrus called Perençanus of the late Sir Aço de Lemicetis of Padua (1365–1392) are mostly unpublished archives. They are all written in Latin, but they contain Slavic and Romance lexemes. The aim of this paper is to analyze appellatives and onyms (i.e., toponyms from the greater area of the Zadar district and anthroponyms) semantically related to lexeme voda ‘water’. They are taken from the corpus based on the above-mentioned archives. A concordance analysis determines the context of using certain lexemes as a reflection of the linguistic reality in the Zadar commune in the 14th century considering the diplomatic structure of different types of notarial and diocesan documents.

Keywords
