A CONTRIBUTION TO THE RESEARCH OF THE KAROJBA IDIOM

Abstract

This article deals with the inventory and distribution of vowels, consonants and prosodic units in the Karojba (Močibob) idiom. Because of these characteristics and some other distinctive features at various levels of language which were confirmed by this research, this idiom is included in the South-Čakavian idioms of the Istrian territory, although nowadays it has a number of characteristics of autochthonous North Čakavian idioms.
