The aim of the research is to identify the features of the dialectal vocabulary of the Usma Kuzbass regional dialect at the present stage of its development. The scientific novelty of the research is that it is the first attempt to describe the dialectal vocabulary of the Kuzbass regional dialect of the 2020s. The article presents a dictionary and classification of dialectisms noted in the speech of the indigenous inhabitants of the village of Usmanka, Chebulinsky District, Kemerovo Region in 2021-2023. The classification of the described dialectal words is based on their fixation in dialect dictionaries, in connection with which four groups of dialectal lexical units are distinguished: dialectisms recorded in the dictionaries of the dialects of Kuzbass; dialectisms presented in the dictionaries of the dialects of Kuzbass as an option; dialectal words recorded in dialect dictionaries of other regions; dialectisms absent in dialect dictionaries. As a result of the research, it was found that the Usma regional dialect at the present stage of its development, on the one hand, retains the dialectisms of the dialects of Kuzbass, the dialects of Siberia and the mother dialects, on the other hand, it is characterized by the originality of its dialectal vocabulary.

Šakiai and Jurbarkas sub-dialects belong to the northern part Western Highlanders of Kaunas region. There is described location of this area in the Lithuanian dialect classification, specific features, dialectal speech self–evaluation and vitality in the beginning of the twenty-first century. According research results Šakiai and Jurbarkas sub-dialects constitute an integral area. there are many common features, this area is transitional to Lowlanders dialect. Dialectal speech self–evaluation is different between two dialects. The Šakiai dialect speakers fully aware of its dialectal dependence, they are able to define its own dialect. However, dialect users note little dialectal features in their own speech, dialectal identity more based on geographical Location and administrative division. The Jurbarkas dialect speakers more fail to identify themselves can not to define its own dialect. The dialect names mostly are made by places of residence names. However, users of this dialect more note dialectal features. Dialectal speech prestige and vitality is high in both sub-dialects. The code switching is uncharacteristic to this area. The least noticeable features are stable, the most noticeable features most disappearing. There are not observed distinct features of the new dialect. High vitality of the dialectal speech is based on small difference from the standard language, not on dialectal prestige or linguistic provisions of dialect speakers.

Full textAbstract:
It is stated in many sources that Uzbek dialects have a complex structure. In particular, Uzbek dialects outside the Republic of Uzbekistan are more complex and unique, ie they belong to different groups. For ex-ample, to such groups we can include the northern Uzbek dialects, which have a relatively small area, namely dialects of the Karluk, Kipchak, and Oghuz dialects. The Ikan dialect belongs to the Oghuz dialect, which was researched by the scientist Y.D. Polivanov, but the works were not conti- nued after him. Almost a century has passed since the publication of Y.D. Polivanov's article regarding the given dialect, during this period, though slowly, certain changes may have occured in the dialect. Q. Muhammad-janov expressed some views on this dialect during the study of northern Uzbek dialects, but it was not included as the research object. This article describes the system of vowels and consonants of Ikan dialect in relation to other dialects in the region, the distribution of phonetic features in oth-er dialects, phonetic processes in the dialect, the geography of dialectal sounds.

Full textAbstract:
The study aims to identify and typologize the distinctive features of the dialect phraseology of Swiss German in accordance with the factors of their linguistic and socio-cultural conditionality. The main factors considered are: the specificity of the socio-cultural “background” of a dialect; the identifying and connotative properties of a dialect; formation of special “phraseological symbols” in a dialect; concreteness of dialect images and a dialect’s “aversion” to abstraction; the desire to update figurative foundations; special phraseological creativity of dialect speakers. Scientific novelty of the study lies in the following: the paper is the first to show and substantiate that dialectal phraseology in Switzerland is a separate phraseological subsystem that has significant differences from the phraseology of the literary level due to the special nature of the socio-cultural context of Swiss German dialects. As a result of the study, it has been found that the formation and preservation of an original phraseological subsystem is ensured by the fact that dialectal phraseology draws its images and metaphors from a special conceptual sphere the basis of which is formed by the features of life and worldview that are relevant for speakers of the dialects.

Full textAbstract:
The article highlights the problem of the typology of dialects of the Middle Volga region. Particular attention is paid to secondary dialects with signs of South Russian dialect bases, the status of which in the Volga atlases is determined ambiguously. The area of the described dialect type is indicated. It is indicated that in the left-bank part of the Middle Volga region, in the so-called Trans-Volga region, there is a high probability of the existence of secondary Central Russian dialects with the preservation of signs of southern Russian maternal stems. The main source is data from regional atlases. The materials of dialectological expeditions to the villages of the Samara region are used. The description of the typological characteristics of the secondary dialects with a southern base, which are designated on the maps of regional atlases as Central Russian, is based on the analysis of isogloss of phonetic, grammatical and proper lexical dialect phenomena. In dialects with a completed transition to Central Russian, typologically significant South Russian features are types of yakany with the preservation of vowel dissimilation, obstruent pronunciation of g of secondary origin and other phonetic, morphological and lexical features that make up the series of two-term dialectal correspondences. According to the linguistic basis, such dialects are often polydialectal. In some dialects, the South Russian basis is not in doubt, and we can only state the beginning of the transition to the Central Russian type. The question is raised about the existence of secondary dialect types, formed as a result of the assimilation of dialects of the South Russian dialect with other dialects, not only in the Volga region, but also in other territories with favorable conditions for inter-dialectal contact. It is concluded that the presence of the Central Russian type and South Russian bases in the described dialects is possible only if there is a sufficient amount of information on typologically significant levels of the dialect language, in which systemic relations are clearly manifested and which are represented on linguistic maps by stable isoglosses. Data on secondary types of dialects should be based on the structural-typological classification of dialectal phenomena of various levels, including the lexical one.

Full textAbstract:
The issues of Russian lexical borrowings (rusisms) in the Bashkir language dialects and subdialects have not been addressed yet. Dictionaries and monographs on the Bashkir language dialects and subdialects describe specific dialectal loanwords without providing a dialectal analysis of loanwords and the specific features of their adaptation and functioning in the Bashkir language dialects and subdialects. Meanwhile, studying rusisms in dialects and subdialects can elucidate both the dialectal lexicology and the formation history of the lexical, phonetic, and grammatical features of a particular Turkic language. Investigating rusisms in dialects and subdialects of Turkic languages, including Bashkir, is also relevant for the Russian language dialectology: the chronology of individual borrowings. It is worth studying the Bashkir language southern dialect widespread in the southern regions of modern Bashkortostan, Bashkir-speaking regions of Orenburg, Samara, and Saratov regions of Russia. Historically located in the very center of the Orenburg province, this territory bordered the provincial city of Orenburg and by the late 18th and early 19th centuries became one of the administrative, political, economic, and trade centers. It was then that Russian loanwords and lexemes of European languages began to actively penetrate the Bashkir dialects. These borrowings constitute a considerable group, thematically related to household, administrative and managerial, military- marching, and agricultural spheres. All rusisms underwent adaptation to the norms of the Bashkir language Southern dialect, e.g., Russian lexemes with hard-row vowels in the southern dialect have front-row vowels. South Russian dialects are considered the dominant source of the Bashkir language southern dialect lexical borrowings.

Full textAbstract:
The dialect identification was studied for many languages over the world nevertheless the research on signal processing for Vietnamese dialects is still limited and there were not many published works. There are many different dialects for Vietnamese. The influence of dialectal features on speech recognition systems is important. If the information about dialects is known during speech recognition process, the performance of recognition systems will be better because the corpus of these systems is normally organized according to different dialects. This paper will present the combination of MFCC coefficients and fundamental frequency features of Vietnamese for dialectal identification based on GMM. The experiment result for the dialect corpus of Vietnamese shows that the performance of dialectal identification is increased from 59% for the case using only MFCC coefficients to 71% for the case using MFCC coefficients and the information of fundamental frequency.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the current sociolinguistic situation in the autochthonous Ukrainian dialects of Northern Podlasie (the territory of Poland) against the background of historical and cultural circumstances in which they have existed, especially in ХХ and early ХХI century. Particular attention is paid to the triad of “confessional – ethnic – linguistic affiliation”; the inculcation of the idea of “Belarusianness” to the population of this dialectal area, which has influenced the modern linguistic and ethnic consciousness of dialect speakers. The peculiarities of language education in Northern Podlasie are also analyzed. The factors that led to the preservation of Northern Podlasie dialects in multicultural conditions and, in fact, in the absence of direct contacts with Ukrainian dialects of the metropolis are identified; and on the other hand, the leveling of ethnic consciousness while preserving the specific language code. The current linguistic situation in the Northern Podlasie dialects is determined by the following main factors: age group of respondents, social status, occupation, family traditions, and, to a large extent, the size of the society, which determines the vitality of the dialect or, conversely, the loss of its prestige. The features of linguistic self-identification by modern speakers of Northern Podlasie dialects are investigated. The role of the idiolect in forming the portrait of the lateral dialect is studied. The tendency to the stability of idiolects in the context of the tangible dynamics of the dialect space is emphasized. The article also examines the written tradition of Northern Podlasie in the dialect, texts in the dialect of various functional styles, and different views on the status of Northern Podlasie dialects, including an attempt to establish a “Podlasie literary micro-language”. Dialectal features in the onomasticon and written microtexts of some other types are analyzed. Keywords: Ukrainian North Podlasie dialects, Ukrainian dialects in a foreign language environment, preservation of lateral dialects, language enclave, Ukrainian dialects of the borderlands.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Previous studies on Chinese dialect variation have mostly focused on the description of dialects, the regions where these dialects are spoken, attitudes towards dialects, and acoustic differences across dialects. The present study draws on experimental evidence concerning a vowel difference in two Taiwan Southern Min (TSM) dialects to provide more understanding on how non-contrastive, dialectal variations may affect speakers’ processing of speech. The variation of interest is a phonemic difference, [ə] and [ɔ], in the vowel inventory in two TSM dialects, in which the difference signals a lexical contrast in one dialect (e.g. [ə-a] ‘oyster’ vs. [ɔ-a] ‘taro’) but not in the other ([ɔ-a] ‘oyster, taro’). A long-term repetition-priming experiment investigating the word recognition involving the two vowels revealed a dialect effect on TSM speakers’ word recognition in accordance with prior exposure, native-ness and variant frequency. Implications of the findings are provided.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the article is to present contemporary Belarusian dialects in south-eastern Lithuania (in the Šalčininkai region), which have not been the subject of comprehensive linguistic research so far. The basis of the analysis is mainly the author’s own materials and materials taped by other dialectologists. The structure of these Belarusian dialects (selected features in phonetics, morphology, syntax, vocabulary and phraseology) as well as the sociolinguistic aspect of their use in a multilingual environment are demonstrated in the article.
 The analysis of the collected material shows that the structure of Belarusian dialects in the study area is well-preserved. Belarusian dialectologists regard the Belarusian dialect in the Vilnius Region as a south-western dialect, which should be described in detail. In the statements of interlocutors, one can note the phonetic, morphological and syntactic features typical of: the south-eastern dialect, the Central Belarusian dialect, the Grodno-Baranovichy group of the south-western dialects and the two so-called dialectal zones: western and north-western. On the one hand, it is a territory shaped by two dialectal massifs and one dialect group, on the other hand, it has been influenced by Baltic and Polish for hundreds of years. Particularly noteworthy is the lexis. Decades of coexistence of Belarusians, Lithuanians and Poles on this territory contributed to the fact that in Belarusian dialects there are numerous borrowings from Lithuanian and Polish (and their dialects).

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents the results of a linguistic expedition to the settlements of the German National Region in Altai. The German language dialectal forms identified can be attributed to the Low German and High German language areas. High German forms are of a mixed nature, including the dialects of both the Middle and South German types. Despite sharing common phonetic features, each of the Upper German dialects in Altai has its own set of features, with some features identified for the first time, for example, nasalization in the Kamyshi village dialect. All Middle German dialects are characterized by incomplete consonant movement and grammatical features. South German dialects also have some peculiarities: full movement of consonants, “hissing” consonant combinations, pronoun mer (we). The High German dialects of the Altai show the features of the original mother dialects and new features acquired due to mixing and leveling processes. A conclusion is made about the impossibility of identifying the dialectal forms precisely. The Low German language substratum is found to be represented by the dialects of the Mennonite Germans. The analysis of the linguistic features has found the speech of the Mennonite Plautdietsch speakers in Altai to be significantly similar to the speech of the Low German Mennonite dialect speakers of the Novosibirsk region. Also, some sociolinguistic components identified during a survey of speakers of different German language dialects were analyzed: self-identification, linguistic competence, attitude towards native dialect.

Full textAbstract:
Dialectal words are lexical units that are actively used in Uzbek folk dialects and are rarely or not used at all at the level of literary language. They differ from words in literary language in that they have a dialectal meaning (s) and are only actively used in dialects. Opinions are expressed about their current number and types. The work done in the field of dialectal lexicon and dialectal lexicography is very limited relating to this field. At the same time, based on the tasks of science, it is possible to preserve the unique lexical richness of dialects by "creating an electronic dictionary and atlas based on the materials of Qarluq, Kipchak and Oguz dialects."It is recognized that there are several practical methods of collec- ting dialectal words, such as "Question-Answer", "Questionnaire". But none of them are as effective methods as the “lexical analysis of dialectal texts” method. This is because the ability to identify dialectal words on the basis of lexical analysis of the content of texts written from dialects has been used in practical experiments during dialectological practices. The article describes the process of recording and transcribing the speech of Dialect (Sheva) representatives as dialectal texts and identifying dialectal words in it as a method of “lexical analysis of dialectal texts”. Dialectal texts written from dialects are also provided as a proof of the said opinions.In the process of dialectological observations, it is advisable to use the following special methods, which are part of the method of analysis of dialectal texts: 1) The method of writing a dialectal text (s); 2) the method of transcribing it (s); 3) the method of determining the types of dialec-tal words based on the requirements of lexical analysis of dialectal texts; 4) a method of teaching dialectal words by analyzing them on the basis of dialectal texts; 5) A method of collecting dialect materials by preparing a "dialect dictionary".If this method is actively used, it will be possible to easily find at least from two and a half to three million dialectal words with the lexical richness of dialects, prepare dictionary articles for them and create mod-ern electronic dictionaries and atlases. It should also be noted that it has been proved that there are ten types of dialectal words. The method of analysis of dialectal texts put forward and tested during dialectological practices and the following special research methods can be used in the innovative project "Compilation of electronic dictionary and atlas based on materials of Qarluq, Kipchak and Oghuz dialects" to be demonstrated with reasoning and evidence from a practical point of view.

Full textAbstract:
Grounded on the comparison of consolidated maps of typical isoglosses, based on the material of more than 50 maps of distribution of lexical-semantic and phonetic phenomena in the dialects of Nadvirna district of Ivano-Frankivsk region, the article reveals opposing structural-territorial integrations within the dialectal continuum of Nadvirna region, defines zone of mixed-transitional sub-dialects of Hutsul-Pokuthian, Hutsul-Upperdnistrian, Upperdnistrian-Pokuthian types and describes their features. In particular, it is noted that sub-dialects located at the confluence of the Pokuthian and Upperdnistrian, Pokuthian and Hutsul, Upperdnistrian and Hutsul dialects appeared as a result of contact between genetically related dialects. Previous studies of dialectologists on mixed and transitional sub-dialects are analyzed. Characteristic features of transitional and mixed dialects are generalized from linguistic sources about transitional and mixed sub-dialects of different linguistic-territorial formations. It is established that sub-dialects, located in the contact zone of Hutsul, Upperdnistrian, Pokuthian dialects are a distinct type of sub-dialects – mixed-transitional, which combine features of mixed and transitional. It is found that mixed-transitional sub-dialects of dialectal adjacencies of Nadvirna region are characterized by combination of different dialectal features, extinction of vocabulary and semantics, which are characteristic of the nexus of dialects, the emergence of contaminated forms, active enrichment of sub-dialects with synonymous rows, preservation of archaic meanings. At the same time, their systems do not undergo radical changes, show signs of mechanical mixing of elements of adjacent dialects. Keywords: areology of Nadvirna region, transitional sub-dialects, mixed sub-dialects, mixed-transitional sub-dialects, dialect boundary.

Full textAbstract:
From the above it can be concluded that the influence of regional dialects in one area is an important factor in the development of the lexicon of Uzbek dialects. Such influence and lexical nourishment may be somewhat more intense in Uzbek dialects that are far from the literary center and surrounded by or familiar with other languages. It goes without saying that such connections cannot be made directly between different dialect regions that are far apart in terms of area. Because each or each group of Uzbek dialects has its own unique and appropriate distribution areas for a long time. Part of the peculiarities of the Dialect trail is related to this boundary, their distribution, location - area, which appeared and developed only in this area. In addition, as a result of observing the dialects of the area, a dialect area may not always be a constant latitude, but may cover a dialect, a village or several villages in the area. So, we have seen that the Uzbeks living in Karakalpakstan use words and phrases typical of the Kipchak and Yuguz dialects. Dialectal area covers very large areas. In general, it shows that the Turkic peoples are blood relatives and brothers. Key words: literary language, dialect, area, local language, comparative historical foundations, grammatical form, scientific classification

Chernihiv) represents a minor segment of a larger research project devoted to the study of the local dialects spoken in the uttermost northwestern area of the region of Chernihiv. These dialects, according to a largely accepted classification, are attributed to the northeastern Ukrainian (or Polissian) dialectal territory and are more specifically known as “transitional from Ukrainian to Belarusian”. Because of the predominantly descriptive character adopted in this paper, some theoretical implications and debatable issues will not be discussed here. The most significant geo-historical facts about this rural village, in line with the dialectological practice and the methodology applied for the collection of data, are delineated in the introductory sections. Central to this study is the description and analysis of the most substantial dialectal features of this local dialect. Their characteristics are examined considering the usual linguistic parameters: phoneticphonology, derivation (to a minor extent), morphology, syntax, and lexis. The fact that Zaderi¿vka is reported (point number 65) in the Atlas Ukraїns’koї Movy [Atlas of the Ukrainian Language] favours comparison with other local varieties, and it is useful to identify recent trends and possible undergoing changes in the examined dialect. The dialectal data analyzed in this paper aim, on the one hand, to increase the already available factual material and, on the other, to foster further theoretical reflections about the origin of these border dialects. Keywords: East Slavic dialectology, North Ukrainian (East Polissian) dialects, Zaderiїvka, local dialect, border dialects

Abstract The linguistic description of the dialect of Vyšneve (Černihiv, Ukraine) can be considered a milestone of a more comprehensive dialectal and sociolinguistic study on the dialects spoken along the Ukrainian-Belarusian and, to a lesser extent, Russian border areas of eastern Polissia. Some of the most representative features of the Vyšneve dialect and its relation to Belarusian have already been the object of previous linguistic analysis. The village is situated about 35 km north-east of the city of Černihiv (regional centre); 12 km south-east of the town of Ripky (former district centre). The distance to the Belarusian border is approximately 35 kilometers. Only the former district of Horodjans’k separates Vyšneve from the region of Brjansk (Russian Federation). The factual material examined in this article aims to complete previous research gaps and, at the same time, intends to foster further theoretical reflections about the origin of these border dialects. The analysis of this local dialect (which includes the phonetic-phonological, morpho-syntactic and lexical levels) in fact lays the foundation for successive and more advanced stages of research on the Ukrainian-Belarusian-Russian border dialects. In this contribution the dialectal features will be systematically compared with both the neighbouring Belarusian dialects spoken along the Ukrainian-Belarusian continuum and with the nearby southern Russian dialects, particularly with their western group. The latter, in fact, shares with the neighbouring Ukrainian and Belarusian border dialects a series of isoglosses and idiosyncratic traits.

Full textAbstract:
This article evaluates the current status of criteria development used for classifying dialects in modern English in Great Britain. Traditionally, regional criteria have been utilized, but this study explores the incorporation of urban, professional, and ethnic dialects in addition to rural regional dialects. The paper examines the classification hierarchy, which starts with geographical regions of the south and north and further expands into subzones and counties. Further utilized criteria are related to the type of locality, and it entails analysing the distinctions between dialects spoken in urban and rural areas, as well as migration and ethnicity. The study emphasizes the significance of creating more precise and comprehensive criteria for dialect classification, given the expanding scope of studying dialectal features and the association between dialect and social status.

This paper proposes to emphasise the linguistic similarities of South-Danubian Romanian dialects (Aromanian, Megleno-Romanian, Istro-Romanian) spoken in Albania, Croatia, R. of North Macedonia, Greece and Romania from the perspective of Romance and Balkan elements. We will take into consideration lexical aspects, from the point of view of linguistic contact with Balkan languages, as well as Romance elements that define these historical dialects of common Romanian. Our exposition is based on the broader theme of the relationship between genealogic (Romance features inherited from Latin, speaking of concordances in the Romance languages) and areal (convergences between the Aromanian and Megleno-Romanian dialects of the Romanian language and the languages spoken in the Balkan area). Through the presence of the Aromanian, Megleno-Romanian and Istro-Romanian dialects of Romanian in the Balkans, creating a bridge between Romània and Balkan, a convergence was attained on the one hand with the Romance languages, and, on the other, with Greek, Albanian North Macedonian as Balkan languages.

The article analyzes the names of food and kitchen appliances from the Polish language used in the sub-dialectal speech of the inhabitants of Pidhaitsi region. Their semantics, etymology, functioning, peculiarities of word-formation have been determined. The correlation of the surveyed sub-dialects with other European languages and Ukrainian sub-dialects has been determined. The study of the names of food and kitchen appliances in the sub-dialects of Pidhaitsi region suggests that the vocabulary of the sub-dialects is rich in lexis borrowed from other languages, and in archaic elements and has a close connection with the lexis of neighboring languages and their dialects. Borrowing from different languages took place at different times, it is conditioned by a number of factors, among which the most important are the historical, socio-economic, political and cultural conditions of the development of Pidhaitsi region. The Polish language is one of the neighboring Slavic languages, which had one of the most powerful influences on the Ukrainian language. Borrowing foreign language vocabulary was not always straightforward. By the medium of the Polish language, Pidhaitsi region sub-dialects contain a lot of borrowings from other European languages. Pidhaitsi region sub-dialects are the central part of the Naddnistriansk dialect and to a certain extent represent the characteristic features of sub-dialects of Naddnistriansk dialect of the southwestern dialect.

Dialect refers to different characteristic of language of a specific group of speakers. These dialects are closely related and often mutually understandable, especially if close geographical region. Dialects can be sociolect, ethnolect, or regiolect, and can be associated with social class, ethnic group, or geographical/regional factors .Any variety of a language can classified as a dialect. Migration is most important factor for idiosyncrasy in languages in particular area. A region wise variation in language of people is know as dialect. Dialects is an important aspect of speaker variability. To express the individual quality of specific region. Children encounter multi-dialectal interactions. An review paper described techniques contributed for India regional language processing it gives information about sources of dataset for the Indian regional languages.

Full textAbstract:
The present article deals with the dialect of Kojda, a village situated on the White Sea coast in the Mezen' rajon of the Archangel'sk oblast'. The dialects of the Archangel'sk oblast' are poorly described, because most of the area is not included in the Dialect Atlas of the Russian Language (DARJa).The dialects spoken to the north of the Northern Dvina developed from the Old Novgorod dialect of the first Russian settlers, who came in the Middle Ages. Kojda was founded at a later stage, in the 17th century, presumably by people from neighbouring settlements. A large proportion of the present population, however, are descendants of Old Believers from Novgorod.The main part of the article consists of an enumeration of the main dialectical features of Kojda. These features were found on a tape recording of an 88-year old inhabitant of the village. These dialectal char-acteristics were compared with data from several publications dealing with dialects from the Archangel'sk oblast', in particular with dialects from the Pinega rajon, which is situated near Kojda.Most features are typical of the Archangel'sk dialects. An exception is the comparatively open pronunciation of the Old Russian jat'. Some data suggest that there are more features which are not typical of all dialects of the Archangel'sk oblast', but further research is needed. My findings suggest that the dialect of Kojda is more similar to the Pinega dialects than might be expected from the literature, though it seems to be less archaic.

Full textAbstract:
The “language or dialect” problem has remained topical for the Karelian language for a century and a half now. Finnic language specialists from Russia and Finland have not managed to hammer out a common opinion regarding Ludic subdialects: whether they belong to Karelian or form a language of their own. Lately, the long-standing concept of Karelian Proper and Livvi sub-dialects as belonging to the same language has also been questioned. An unresolved issue is the dialectal division of the Karelian language. Seeking to fi nd the lexical criteria for determining the linguistic status of certain Karelian varieties (idioms) in this study, we applied the lexicostatistical approach. Th e percentages of matches between idioms were calculated using Swadesh basic vocabulary (100-word) list. Data on 30 Karelian and Veps sub-dialects were selected from the “Comparative Onomasiology Dictionary of Karelian, Veps, and Sami Dialects” (2007). Based on the threshold match percentages for discrimination between languages (91–90 %), all the idioms fell into two groups: the Karelian and the Veps languages. Mikhailovskoe Village sub-dialect occupies a transitional position between them. Th e results demonstrate a relatively identical composition of the basic vocabulary of Karelian Proper, including Tver, as well as of Livvi and Ludic sub-dialects. Within the Karelian language, sub-dialects formed three large groups: 1) Karelian-Proper sub-dialects of Northern Karelia; 2) Karelian-Proper sub-dialects of Central Russia; 3) Karelian-Proper sub-dialects of Middle Karelia together with Livvi and Ludic sub-dialects. The results of the study are going to be used in working on the dialectal classification of the Karelian language, which primarily relies on linguistic criteria.

In den ungarischen Rahmenlehrplänen für den Nationalitätenunterricht wird die Rolle der deutschen Dialekte in der Nationalitätenerziehung ausdrücklich formuliert. Laut dem Rahmenlehrplan für das Fach Deutsche Volkskunde sind „ein hohes Maß an Sprachkenntnis, die Pflege lokaler Dialekte und Bräuche, die Kenntnis von Geschichte und Gegenwart ein wesentlicher Bestandteil der Identität.“ (https://umz.hu/tantervek/) Der Dialekt ist einer der Bestandteile der deutschen Identität in Ungarn. Er kann als Instrument zur Stärkung oder Wiederbelebung der Identität eingesetzt werden und dazu dienen, um Brücken zwischen den Generationen zu schlagen. Immer mehr junge Familien halten es für wichtig, ihren Kindern die deutsche Sprache und den deutschen Dialekt beizubringen. Die Beschäftigung mit Dialekten hilft den Kindern, die große Vielfalt der gesprochenen deutschen Sprache besser zu verstehen. Die Arbeit liefert neben einem Überblick über die Sprache der Ungarndeutschen, den deutschen Nationalitätenunterricht an ungarischen Schulen und die Rolle des Dialekts in der Sprachvermittlung auch Empfehlungen für aktuelle Hilfsmaterialien zur Dialektvermittlung in den ungarndeutschen Schulen. In the framework curricula for teaching Hungary’s nationalities, the role of German dialects in nationality education has been explicitly formulated. According to the framework curriculum for the subject of German folklore, “a high level of knowledge of the language, the cultivation of local dialects and customs, knowledge of history and the present are an essential part of identity formation”. Dialect is one of the components of German identity in Hungary. Dialect can be used as a tool to strengthen or revive identity. It can be used to build bridges between generations. More and more young families consider it important to teach their children the German language and dialect. Studying dialects helps children to better understand the great diversity of the spoken German language. In addition to an overview of the language of Hungarian Germans, German nationality teaching in Hungarian schools and the role of dialect in language teaching, the article also provides recommendations for current support materials for teaching dialect in the schools of Hungarian Germans.

Full textAbstract:
Latvian dialects in the 21st century: old and new borders Although historical regional dialects are still relatively well preserved in Latvia, nowadays one can no longer speak of dialects and sub-dialects in the traditional sense because, due to changes of administrative borders, the traditional sub-dialects are subject to attrition and gradual loss. In particular, the contact zone of Central and High Latvian dialect has changed markedly. The border of High Latvian dialect has moved to the east. Since 2013, a project “Latvian Dialects in the 21st Century: a Sociolinguistic Aspect” is being carried out in order to gain an insight into contemporary Latvian dialect situation, analyzing at least three sub-dialects in each dialect.However, we can speak of dialect borders in another aspect. For instance, the borders between the preservation of dialectal features and the impact of standard language, as well as the borders of maintenance of sub-dialectal feature among the speakers of different age groups. Attention is also paid to the use of sub-dialects in central and peripheral parts of territories. The first research results showed that people who live further from the centre use the sub-dialect more often – especially in communication with family members (including the younger generation), relatives and neighbours.The preliminary results show a different situation among dialects. In the sub-dialects of the Middle dialect, which is closest to Standard Latvian, the borderline between sub-dialect and standard language has almost disappeared, since the informants practically do not feel any difference between them.In the Livonianized dialect, there are several features that are still more or less present in the speech of all generations – generalization of masculine gender, reduction of word endings, etc. However, in this dialect, too, the language used by younger speakers is gradually losing the dialectal features.The situation differs in various sub-dialect groups of High Latvian dialect. The Selonian sub-dialects spoken in Zemgale show traces of dialectal features (syllable tones, irregular vowel shifts, etc.); they are found mainly in the speech of older generation. The Latgalian sub-dialects in Vidzeme are mainly spoken by older respondents and usually among family members; while in public spaces the sub-dialects practically cannot be heard. However, many dialectal features have been retained in the speech of middle and even younger generations. The most stable are the sub-dialects spoken in Latgale because of their use not only in everyday speech but also in cultural activities. The presence of the Latgalian written language, too, helps to maintain local sub-dialects; it is also used in Roman Catholic church services in Latgale. In Latgale, the sub-dialects are spoken by all generations. However, the younger people sometimes use the standard language to communicate among themselves.This study provides new facts and might be the basis for further research. It might allow to predict the development of native language and its dialects as an important component of national and local identity respectively. Comparative analysis of material acquired at different periods allows us to conclude which dialectal features are more viable and which are more likely to change and disappear. Dialekty łotewskie w wieku XXI: stare i nowe granice Choć na Łotwie wciąż stosunkowo dobrze zachowały się historyczne dialekty lokalne, nie można już obecnie mówić o dialektach i gwarach w tradycyjnym znaczeniu. Zmiany granic administracyjnych sprawiły bowiem, że tradycyjne gwary ulegają dziś zatarciu i stopniowo zanikają. Znacząco zmieniło się zwłaszcza usytuowanie strefy styku dialektów środkowego i górnołotewskiego; granica zasięgu tego ostatniego przesunęła się na wschód. Kwestiom tym poświęcono projekt „Dialekty łotewskie w XXI wieku: aspekt socjolingwistyczny”, w ramach którego od 2013 r. badana jest sytuacja socjolingwistyczna gwar na współczesnej Łotwie. Analizowane są przynajmniej trzy gwary w obrębie każdego z dialektów.Pojęcie granicy ma jednak zastosowanie do opisu innych aspektów badań dialektologicznych. Można na przykład mówić o granicy między zachowaniem cech dialektów a wpływami języka literackiego, jak również o granicach podtrzymywania cech gwarowych w mowie użytkowników należących do różnych grup wiekowych. Badaniu poddano także kwestię używania gwar w centralnych i peryferyjnych częściach rejonu ich występowania. Wstępne wyniki sugerują, że ludzie mieszkający dalej od centrum używają gwary częściej – zwłaszcza w komunikacji z członkami rodziny (w tym z młodszego pokolenia), z krewnymi i z sąsiadami.Wstępne wyniki badań wskazują także na zróżnicowaną sytuację poszczególnych dialektów. Na obszarze występowania gwar dialektu środkowego, najbliższego literackiej łotewszczyźnie, niemal zanikło rozgraniczenie między gwarami a językiem literackim, skoro różnicy takiej nie odczuwają sami informatorzy.W dialekcie liwońskim występuje kilka cech dialektalnych, obecnych jeszcze w większym lub mniejszym stopniu w mowie wszystkich pokoleń, jak uogólnienie rodzaju męskiego czy redukcja wygłosu. Jednakże i tutaj język, którym posługują się młodsi użytkownicy, stopniowo traci cechy dialektalne.Inna sytuacja panuje w grupach gwarowych dialektu górnołotewskiego. Gwary selońskie z Semigalii wykazują ślady cech dialektalnych (tonalność sylab, nieregularne przesunięcia samogłosek itd.); występują one przede wszystkim w mowie starszego pokolenia. Gwarami łatgalskimi z Widzeme posługują się z kolei głównie starsi respondenci, zwykle w gronie najbliższej rodziny; gwar tych praktycznie nie słyszy się natomiast w przestrzeni publicznej. Wiele cech dialektalnych zachowało się tu jednak także w mowie średniego, a nawet młodszego pokolenia. Najstabilniejsze okazały się gwary Łatgalii, co wiąże się z ich użyciem nie tylko w mowie codziennej, lecz również w działalności kulturalnej. Zachowaniu gwar sprzyja także istnienie łatgalskiego języka pisanego, jak również używanie miejscowego języka podczas nabożeństw Kościoła katolickiego. Wszystko to sprawia, że w Łatgalii gwarami posługują się przedstawiciele wszystkich pokoleń. Jednakże i tutaj ludzie młodsi niekiedy komunikują się między sobą w języku literackim.Studium to jest prezentacją nowych danych i jako takie może stanowić podstawę dalszych badań. Badania takie mogłyby umożliwić prognozowanie tego, jak rozwijać się będą język łotewski oraz jego dialekty jako ważne składniki odpowiednio narodowej i lokalnej tożsamości Łotyszy. Analiza porównawcza materiałów zebranych w różnych okresach pozwala na wyciąganie wniosków co do tego, które cechy dialektalne wykazują większą żywotność, które zaś prawdopodobnie ulegną zmianie lub zanikowi.

This paper deals with the classification of the dialects of the Shanghai area. I propose that tonal split can be used as a major criterion to classify these dialects. Based on this criterion I classify the dialects in the Shanghai area into five subgroups: the Chongming, Jiading, Songjiang, Liantang and Urban groups. This classification not only reflects the different types of dialectal developments, but is also in keeping with the distinct historical-cultural backgrounds associated with each dialect area. There are three parts to this paper: 1. the criteria of the classification, and the classification of the dialects; 2. the historical background of the classification; 3. some common phonological features of the dialects of the Shanghai area.

Whereas almost all Ryukyuan dialects with tonal contrasts are word-tone languages, the Nakijin dialect of Northern Okinawa is an accentual language, and this accent, in addition to being pronounced with a high tone in certain environments, interacts with a vowel lengthening process. Through comparison of the Okinawan dialect of Nakijin with the Amami dialect of Asama (Tokunoshima Island), which also has a productive vowel lengthening process, this paper reconstructs the prosodic system (pitch and vowel length) for underived nouns in Proto-Northern Ryukyuan, and shows how the accent developed in the Nakijin dialect. Alors que la plupart des dialectes ryukyu possédant des distinctions tonales sont des langues à tons lexicaux, le dialecte de Nakijin du nord d’Okinawa est une langue à accent, et cet accent, en plus d’être prononcé sous la forme d’un ton haut dans certains environnements, interagit avec un processus d’allongement vocalique. Par la comparaison du dialecte okinawaïen de Nakijin et du dialecte amami d’Asama (île de Tokunoshima), qui a lui aussi un processus productif d’allongement vocalique, cet article reconstruit le système prosodique (mélodie et longueur vocalique) des noms non dérivés en proto-ryukyu du Nord et expose la manière dont l’accent s’est développé dans le dialecte de Nakijin.

The aim of the article is to present contemporary Belarusian dialects in south-eastern Lithuania (in the Vilnius region), which have been the subject of linguistic research but not comprehensive. The basis of the analysis is mainly the author’s own materials, materials taped by other dialectologists and dictionary entitled Слоўнік беларускіх гаворак паўночна-заходняй Беларусі і яе пагранічча. The structure of these Belarusian dialects (selected features in phonetics, morphology, syntax, vocabulary and phraseology) as well as the sociolinguistic aspect of their use in a multilingual environment are demonstrated in this article.
 The analysis of the collected material shows that the structure of Belarusian dialects in the study area is well-preserved. Belarusian dialectologists regard the Belarusian dialect in Vilnius Region as a south-western dialect, which should be described in detail. In the statement of interlocutors, one can note the phonetic, morphological and syntactic features typical for: the south-western dialect, the Central Belarusian subdialects, the Grodno-Baranavichy group of the south-western dialect and the two so-called dialectal zones: western and north-western. Local Belarusian dialects have been influenced by Baltic and Polish for hundreds of years and we can notice numerous borrowings from these and their dialects.

The diversity of the contemporary Silesian dialects corresponds to the division adopted by K. Nitsch (1960), apart from the non-existence of the Lach dialects that are extinct in this area. However, the dialects present in Silesia have become richer by the Southern Borderlands dialect, which is used mainly by repatriates living in villages (and small towns) in the area stretching from the Katowice to the Wrocław regions. The linguistic analysis of a given dialect is still determined based on the inhabitants’ speech, that is relying on the usage and function criterion. This opens the prospect of studying language by means of the paradigms applying the usage-based models of language, such as cognitivism, sociolinguistics, and dialectology. The most commonly used variation of Polish is mixed, where the dialect intertwines with the general language and which is characterised by stylistic diversity (e.g. the colloquial and scientific styles); hence, the application of language usage-based paradigms, which enable the presentation of language in sociocultural processes (e.g. dromology, mediamorphosis, and glocalisation, i.e. globalisaƟ on and localisation combined) is important in the research of this kind. When determining dialectal characteristics, E. Rosch’s prototype theory is also useful, as it permits the detection of canonical (prototypical) features of a given dialect, usually phonetic ones, which allow its distinction from another dialect by criteria. This is because the traditional division of Silesian dialects has undergone certain transformations concerned with a shift of Silesian dialects’ influences with respect to Lesser and Greater Polish ones, expansion of the mixed area at the borderline between dialects, establishment of mixed Polish, and reduction of the number of people speaking a dialect only. The diversity of dialects as a prestigious variation of Polish in Silesia attests to the abundance of regional experiences of the lands and requires a further holistic research of the language transformations occurring in Silesia

Areal study of the Don territory provides researchers with the evidences of ethnic culture. Uniqueness of the semantic development of Don dialect phraseology in a modern research paradigm is perceived as a reflection of a national language background of linguistic-cultural community. A special mention must be made with regards to a particular nature of linguistic culture and dialectic terminology of Don dialects. When covering the role of terminology phrases in a dialect and the appropriateness of classifying them as dialect phraseological units, their continual relationship with ethnic and linguistic factors are worth mentioning.

To translate a particular word or collection of words from one dialect to another, a system called the dialect translation module is used in this work. The suggested system's results can help with understanding and analysing the dialectal differences between the dialects. This will also benefit individuals keen on acquiring communication skills in one or more of the dialects. When translating, consider both mainstream Assamese (standard Assamese) and the Kamrupia (Palasbari) dialect of Assamese. This study delves into the analysis of text, word construction, morphology, grammar, and ambiguity. Towards the conclusion, a method for developing a deliberate translation system is suggested.

Full textAbstract:
The article discusses the history of the Croatian language, particularly the paths of the gradual linguistic integration of all Croats and the development of the standard language (based upon the Štokavian dialect) within Croatian society, whose members have spoken three dialects (Čakavian, Štokavian, Kajkavian) since the Middle Ages. Because of the multidialectal situation (all three dialects played an important role in the history of the Croatian language), linguistic integration was a complex process. The use of the Croatian language before national integrality in the 19th century may look complicated and disunified, but this article attempts to show the old connections between different dialectal areas and the realization of two the main conceptions of the construction of Croatian superdialectal (literary) expression in linguistic history: a literary language with a single-dialect basis (but with multi-dialectal infiltration within the superstructure) and a literary (hybrid) type of language based upon at least two dialects.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the dialectal vocabulary of Russian dialects on the territory of the Middle Volga region. The author relies on new materials collected in the regional atlas and dictionary. The article provides the facts that the sources reflect the uneven development of dialect lexical systems, in which, on the one hand, under the influence of standardization and inter-dialectal contact, new words appear and, on the other hand, archaisms are preserved. Conservative processes are noted in that part of the vocabulary that reflects the connections of Samara dialects with those of the Vladimir-Volga type. It is noted that the dialect words have a narrow-localized nature and retain the memory of archaic linguistic features. The dynamic character of the language system is manifested in the scope of potential for the production of new words and semantic variants of dialect words. The article provides the facts that new meanings appear in words, previously denoting concepts and realities that have disappeared by now. Dynamic processes are observed in the vocabulary groups of flora and fauna, meteorology, in vocabulary groups united by the topic “Person”. It is concluded that in the context of standardization and globalization, dialectal vocabulary can preserve its traditional features, and dialects retain their communicative capabilities and the ability for word formation.

The aim of the article is to highlight the concept and basic principles of compiling a dictionary of Eastern Steppe Ukrainian dialects. The aim implies reaching the following objectives: substantiating the criteria for selecting the empirical material; developing the dictionary compilation principles; defining the structure of the dictionary and the dictionary entry; describing the specific designation of variants of the dialect names of clothing; covering the semantic structure of the analysed dialect words; representing synonymy, polysemy and homonymy of the studied lexical units; recording expressive shades of the analysed dialect vocabulary; writing trial dictionary entries. The material for the article includes dialect recordings made by the author, mainly by the expeditionary method, in Donetsk Oblast settlements during 1997–2013. To track the degree of word spread in the studied dialects, the materials collected by students of the Philological Faculty of Vasyl Stus Donetsk National University have been used. The research metho-dology is based on the theoretical foundations of dialectology, lexicology and lexico-graphy. To achieve the aim, general and specific scientific methods have been used: analysis and synthesis; descriptive and analytical method for collecting, inventorying, systematising dialectal lexical units, as well as for interpreting linguistic facts; the com-parative method has been used to determine the peculiarities of the analysed dialectal vocabulary; the technique of modelling dialect vocabulary has been applied to construct dictionary entries. The article presents the concept and principles of compiling the re-gional dictionary of Eastern Steppe Ukrainian dialects, taking into account the existing developments in Slavic dialectology, describes the criteria for selecting the empirical material, characterises the dictionary type and its general structure, as well as features of dictionary entries (interpretation of meanings, grammatical characteristics, labels reflecting the peculiarities of the word functioning in the dialect, the originality of the illustrative material). The study contains trial dictionary entries which demonstrate the specifics of the vocabulary of the new-settlement Ukrainian dialects of Donetsk Oblast. Further research and thorough presentation of the principles of compiling the regional dictionary of Eastern Steppe Ukrainian dialects will be possible after extracting, selecting and analysing more lexical material. In this regard, the proposed principles of lexico-graphic recording of Eastern Steppe Ukrainian dialects can be expanded and refined.

Full textAbstract:
The paper investigates a twofold attitude towards linguistic diversity in the Lithuanian-speaking community, where, on the one hand, the dialects are valorised as a national and ethnographic asset and, on the other hand, certain restrictions on their use are imposed because of association with a lower social value and negative stereotypes. Three direct attitudinal studies serve as an empirical basis for the research: a quantitative survey, qualitative interviews and an experiment with high-school students on stereotypical traits of the dialect speaker. When discussing future prospects of dialect change, the overt values of the speakers are compared with the findings of the speaker evaluation experiment that have revealed subconscious values of dialectal speech. The research has shown that compared to the Soviet times, the ideological climate regarding dialects has become more politically correct. Positive attitudes are most prominent at a declarative level and when regional identity and the speaker’s affiliation with a particular community have to be emphasised. Daily personal experiences, however, with the functionality of a dialect and evaluations of social and geographic mobility of dialect speakers, show a less favourable assessment of dialectal speech in comparison to the standard (non-dialectal) varieties. It is very much due to a frequent negative stereotyping of dialect speakers. The subconscious attitudes also reveal that the dialectal variability of speech has an arguably lower social meaning compared to the non-dialectal variability. The attitudes and practices of non-professional (lay) people may be claimed to reflect a double-faced standardization ideology of the Lithuanian language, which valorises dialects as an ecologic asset and at the same time limits their functioning by putting them in the reserve of “immobile” speakers.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the history of the formation of traditional dialectal classification of the Karelian language, highlights its main problems, and also outlines the ways to solve them. In the course of developing this classification, the administrative principle, based on the volost division of the territory of Karelia at the beginning of the XX century, was used. In Fennistics, there are several variants of this classification, however, they all have a number of specific problems, which can be reduced to the following: 1) the problem of determining the status of individual groups of dialects: Ludic, dialects of Border Karelia, so-called transitional dialects between North Karelian and South Karelian dialects of Karelian Proper; 2) the problem of terminology: on the dialect map of the Karelian language, in fact, supradialects and subdialects are represented, and not dialects; 3) the problem of choosing the basic principle of dialectal division: the administrative principle cannot be used as the dominant one, since the volost boundaries of the beginning of the XX century do not always coincide with typical isoglosses. The article provides illustrative examples that indicate the inconsistency of the existing classification and the need to develop its version based on the results of linguistic analysis. The study is based on the results of the use of two computer programs: a program for comparing dialects of the Karelian language and a program for clustering, based on large volumes of pre-coded dialectal material from the "Dialectological Atlas of the Karelian Language" (1997) (over 38 thousand dialect units). The relevance of the study is due to the urgent need to solve the problems of Karelian dialectology. This is important for determining the actually required number of newly written variants of the Karelian language for the Karelian-speaking population of Russia and Finland.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the study of the interaction of two idioms: dialect language and literary standard. The typology of the interaction of dialects ↔ literary language is clarified on the example of one dialect – the West Polissian dialect; the factors that determine this interaction within one dialect micro-area are parameterized; the main mechanisms of such interaction are outlined. It is emphasized that the nature of contacts dialect ↔ literary language is two-sided. The first part of the study analyzes the influence of northern dialects on the formation of the literary standard in the diachronic aspect. The West Polissian dialect is characterized in view of its differentiation and peculiarities of functioning; the representation of dialectal elements and phenomena in texts of artistic style and common dictionaries in synchrony is studied and generalized. Several tendencies have been identified: the use of dialectal words in texts, which are not present in common dictionaries; partial semantization of dialecticisms in lexicographical works against the background of their wider semantic scope in dialectal speech; wider functional and stylistic load of dialectal vocabulary in speech compared to dictionaries of literary language. The second part of the article examines how the literary language can influence dialects – the repertoire of their elements, the functionality of individual units, the field of functioning of the dialect as a whole. It is noted that this trend may have varying degrees of manifestation. One of the first stages of influence was the assimilation of new language units, which are layered on dialect elements; the second stage is the neutralizing of some language features, and under condition of its systematic nature, as a consequence, the configuration of the ranges of individual phenomena changes; third stage is a complete transformation of dialectal speech under the influence of literary standard; the fourth is the disappearance of the locus where the dialect resides. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of intralinguistic and extralinguistic factors that affect the interaction of dialect ↔ literary language.

Full textAbstract:
The article analyzes dialectal parallels in the corpus of nominations and folk beliefs of thematic group of childbirth rite vocabulary of Western and Eastern Podilian dialects, which are marginal in relation to the core of the speech. It was noted that in the nomination of childbirth rite of Eastern and Western areas of Podilian dialect, the most frequent is the lexical nomination, expressed by substantives and substantivized attributes, attributive word combinations.
 For each lexical-semantic group, characteristic principles of nomination are defined, in particular, the most productive in both studied areas are: lexical-semantic group of women’s names: action → action figure; age, action → person’s name; number of childbirths → person. Lexical-semantic group of children’s names: action → child’s name; age → child’s name. Lexical-semantic group names of other ritual participants: action, ritual function → doer; actor rank → doer. Lexical-semantic group names of rites: action → name of the rite.
 Most of the lexemes that serve the childbirth rite are known in the dialects of both areas, which confirms their belonging to the Podil dialect, some lexemes recorded in the Western Podil dialects indicate the proximity of these dialects to other dialects of the southwestern dialect of the Ukrainian language.
 In the dialects of both studied areas, there is approximately the same system of prohibitions for a pregnant woman and a newborn child, which is expressed at the syntactic level in the design of complex sentences and the use of various subordinating conjunctions. Cultural texts reflect the phonetic systems of Western and Eastern Podil dialects.

"Consonant Epenthesis in the Dialect of Teramo. This contribution deals with the process of consonant epenthesis typical of the Southern dialects of Italy, focusing on Abruzzese. Based on corpus data of the dialect spoken in Teramo, it tackles issues concerning the quality of epenthetic segments and its relationship with the process of lenition of velar plosives, also typical of the dialectal area. The synchronic status of the two processes is also addressed, as well as the status of the utterance-initial position in the dialect. Finally, a discussion about the distribution of the different epenthetic segments is sketched. Keywords: epenthesis, prosthesis, lenition, Abruzzese, Southern Italian dialects "

Full textAbstract:
The dialect of Scots spoken in the Shetland Islands has been variously described as a language shift variety, acquired when the islanders abandoned their native Norn for Scots from the sixteenth century onwards, or a continuation of the dialects brought to Shetland by Scottish immigrants in the same period. More recently, Millar (2008) discussed the origins of Shetland Scots in a theory of new-dialect formation (Trudgill 2004), which allows for a combination of earlier explanations. In this article, I give a systematic analysis of the phonetics and phonology of Early Shetland Scots in comparison to Norn and mainland Scots dialects. The Shetland Scots data are largely consistent with theoretical expectations, lending further support to the new-dialect reading of the dialect's diachronic development.

Full textAbstract:
Parallel texts corpora are essential resources in linguistics and natural language processing, especially in translation and multilingual information retrieval. The publicly available parallel text corpora are limited to certain genres, types and domains. Furthermore, the parallel dialect text is scarce, even though they are important in the analysis and study of a dialect. Collecting parallel dialect text is challenging because dialects typically appear in the form of speech and very limited dialectic texts exist. Moreover, there is no standard orthography in most dialects. The contributions of this paper are threefold. First, the paper describes a methodology in acquiring a parallel text corpus of Standard Malay and Malay dialects, particularly Kelantan Malay and Sarawak Malay. Second, we propose a hybrid of distance based and statistical-based alignment algorithm to align words and phrases the parallel text. The results show that the precision and recall values of the proposed alignment algorithm are more than 95% and better than the state-of the-art GIZA++. Third, the alignment obtained were compared to find out the lexical similarities and differences between Standard Malay and the two studied Malay dialects, contributing valuable insights into the linguistic variations within the Malay language family.

Introduction. The paper considers the Ripuarian dialect group spread on the territory of three modern states – Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. The research concentrates on the dialect’s reception by its speakers, while special attention is paid to the language situation in Belgium. Defining the correspondence of state and linguistic borders in this region might be of great current scientific interest.Methodology and sources. The research methodology is based on Russian and foreign studies in dialectology (V. M. Zhirmunskii, F. Münch, W. Haubrichs) and dialectography (K. Haag, A. Bach, J. Kajot and H. Beckers). For the dialects’ characteristics descriptive and comparative methods were used. The analysis of the sociolinguistic situation is based on the works of P. Auer, Th. Frings, J. Kajot and H. Beckers and others. To follow the current dialect speakers’ point of view the data from Belgian Internet-sites and forums were used. Such complex method allows to valuate not only linguogeographic but also the newest extralinguistic facts. Results and discussion. The paper examines the spread and the characteristics of the Ripuarian dialects, the history of their use in Germany, underlining the special role of Cologne’s dialect. The situation with the Ripuarian dialects in modern Eastern Belgium is as well analyzed. Problems of self-identity of the dialect speakers and of dialect’s connection to the High German are also considered.Conclusion. The dependence of linguistic situation in Belgium on political and sociocultural factors, while the state boundaries play a significant role in the self-identity of dialect speakers.

Full textAbstract:
Massive population movement across dialectal boundaries in contemporary China leads to increasing bilingualism in Putonghua (Standard Chinese) and regional dialects. This study investigates the functional distribution of Putonghua and Cantonese as spoken by immigrant residents in Guangdong Province. Results from questionnaire surveys in Guangzhou and Shenzhen reveal different patterns of Putonghua-dialect bilingualism in the two cities. For immigrants in Guangzhou, Putonghua and the local dialect (Cantonese) have comparable strength and functions, whereas in Shenzhen, Putonghua serves as the dominant language. To account for the differences between Guangzhou and Shenzhen, we argue that demographic structure is an important factor regulating the standard-dialect relationship in the urban communities of China. We propose that social network features correlate with the respective instrumental and integrative values of the languages or dialects in contact. This research provides insights into the dynamic interaction between the standard language and dialects in multilingual societies that are experiencing profound social changes.

Full textAbstract:
Summary The advent and the first stage of development of the Polish dialectology is connected with the Neogrammarian trend. In 1873, Lucjan Malinowski (1839–1898) published in Leipzig the first scientific description of a Polish dialect. His student, Kazimierz Nitsch (1874–1958), included in his research the entire territory of the Polish language, and in 1915 published the first synthesis Dialekty języka polskiego (Dialects of the Polish language).In the inter-war period and later, there appeared a number of descriptions of dialects of individual villages and larger regions. A new, synthesizing discussion of the subject, in Karol Dejna’s (b.1911) Dialekty polskie (Polish dialects), was published in 1973. Geolinguistic atlases of particular dialects were produced, as well as Mały atlas gwar polskich (A little atlas of Polish dialects) comprising the whole country. A number of dialectal dictionaries were issued; work on the voluminous Słownik gwar polskich (A dictionary of Polish dialects) is in progress. A new area of research is developing – historical dialectology which is concerned with the problems of participation of particular dialects in the formation of literary Polish.

Currently more and more research is devoted to the analysis of the linguistic situation of Lithuanian towns and villages (cf. Ramonienė et al. 2010). The issues of the choice of linguistic varieties and analysis of the trends of using dialects in private and public life as well as relationship between dialectal speech and standard language deserve special attention (Ramonienė et al. 2010; Ramonienė 2006; Aliūkaitė 2007; 2011; Kalėdienė 2009). This paper makes use of the material and the quantitative data from the project The sociolinguistic map of Lithuania: towns and villages implemented by Vilnius University, the Lithuanian Language Institute and Vytautas Magnus University in 2010-2012 as well as of the maps drawn by Viktorija Baranauskienė on the basis of the same data (2013).A more detailed analysis of dialects used by children in communication with their parents in the towns of Žemaitija region (cf. the map The use of dialects in communication with parents among the respondents and regional distribution of dialects) is given and the features of a dialect used in Klaipėda, the largest town of Žemaitija, and smaller towns as well as the opinions of the residents of Žemaitija about the most usual, most valuable and most intelligible dialect and promotion of the use of dialects among young people are discussed separately. The quantitative data is presented in graphs and maps.According to the quantitative data, the use of heterogeneous, or ‘mixed’, and homogenous, or ‘pure’, dialects of the towns of Žemaitija region in communication with parents is as follows: the Žemaitian dialect prevails in many ‘pure’ towns of Žemaitija such as Plungė, Rietavas, Telšiai, Gargždai, Šilalė, Skuodas. The residents of these towns are also more favourably disposed towards the Žemaitian dialect—the majority would encourage young people to learn and speak the dialect; however, a smaller percentage think that the Žemaitian dialect is the most beautiful. In the ‘mixed’ towns of Žemaitija region (where both the Aukštaitian dialect and the Žemaitian dialect are used) Šiauliai, Kuršėnai and Šilutė only 1–5 per cent use the Žemaitian dialect in communication with parents, but there the Žemaitian dialect is considered the most usual and the most beautiful.

Full textAbstract:
Arabic is famous for having several tribes. Each tribe has different dialect. Now the most famous leaves only three dialects, namely Quraysh, Tamim, and Asad. Many data reported that those dialects were not only different in terms of phonetics, but also other linguistic aspects. This study aimed to find the different dialect characteristics of the three popular dialects so that it could make it easier to understand the language that was generally used in Arab's community. The result showed that the three dialects most commonly used were Quraysh and Tamim dialects. In contrary, Asad’s dialect was only in small communities. All three dialects had differences in phonetic terms and sentences. This result indicates that phonetics and sentences of Quraysh dialect can be changed into other forms in Tamim and Asad dialects with several categories.

Full textAbstract:
During the period 1966—1990 we studied the occurrence of different song dialects of the Ortolan Bunting in Sweden. Song dialects were identified for more than 420 males from about 150 different localities. We found that two regional dialects, one Northern Swedish and one Central Swedish, were prevailing. The characteristics of these two dialects are shown on melograms with one curve for fundamental frequency and one curve for relative sound pressure. The dialects can be identified and the differences clearly heard in the field without technical means. The Northern Swedish dialect is predominant north of the province of Hälsingland and the Central Swedish dialect south of that province. The two dialects meet and “overlap” in Hälsingland. The picture is supplemented by the occurrence of individuals with the foreign dialect, both dialects or a mixed dialect.
