TOPOGRAPHIC NOUNS OF ROMANCE ORIGIN IN THE TOPONYMY OF THE EASTERN ADRIATIC
Nada Vajs

Sažetak
Taking an approach which is opposite of the usual procedure for investigating toponymy, we proceed from an attested or assumed noun which could become a toponym. Thus investigated in the first group are topographic common nouns of Romance origin that when used as toponyms indicate features of the terrain: the natural configuration of the land, forms of contact between land and sea, types of ground, and position of the terrain. In the second group toponyms are derived from nouns that denoted human artefacts, and in the last group topographic metaphors are discussed.
