Sažetak
This work describes population structure as a reflection of former and current migrational movements on the island of Korčula, on the basis of a set basic vocabulary which is connected to important fundamental categories of material and spiritual culture. The position of nuances in expression in the vocabulary are revealed as indicators of language microevolution. Isoglosses are presented which point out the connections between geographic and linguistic distances among the villages studied.
As on Korčula we find populations speaking various local idioms of the Čakavian and Štokavian dialects, as well as their transitional forms, the results of this research have a significance beyond that of the linguistic sciences.
