Sažetak
Language and culture are deeply interwoven. The relationship between language and culture is most obvious at the level of meaning, i. e. in the dictionary: cultural meaning is most usually a part of linguistic meaning; it is lexicalized. Thus the description of lexical items in a particular language should involve at least a minimal knowledge of the society and culture of the community that uses that language. This paper focuses on two Croatian words, sablast 'phantom' and sablazan 'scandal', in order to show how their present semantic interrelationships are the result of their semantic interrelationships in the past.
