Produktbeschreibung
The book scrutinizes the language of Polish-origin Highlanders living in Carpathian
Bukovina. Krasowska has personal, direct knowledge of the life, culture, customs, and
behaviors of the group. Among many interesting conclusions she draws from the analysis,
she considers how the influence of different languages spoken in Bukovina affects
the vocabulary from specific thematic spheres, for example the religious vocabulary, vocabulary
connected to logging and terrain, popular foods, clothing, farming and animal
breeding, or official (state) vocabulary. A significant part of the Highlanders' vocabulary
are "carpathisms," namely words used in different regions of the Carpathians.
