Sažetak
The paper aims to determine dialect change at the lexical level in the Croatian-
-Čakavian local dialect of Betina on the island of Murter using the example of
one hundred and two selected terms from the field of viticulture and cooperage
terminology. Starting from the assumption that younger speakers use fewer
dialectal variants than their older peers, we consider language accommodation
and social and economic changes as factors of dialect levelling. The field study
consisted of structured interviews with respondents from two generations of
speakers. The lexical corpus was collected from six older respondents, and then
the knowledge of the meaning and use of the term was verified among twelve
younger respondents. The results show that 63 % of speakers know the meaning
and that 45 % claim to use the terms, which indicates that dialect levelling and
change at the lexical level in local dialect of Betina is already occurring.
