Comparison of the two local dialects – Orebić and Karmen on the Pelješac peninsula

Karmen i Orebić naselja su na jugozapadnoj strani poluotoka Pelješca. U ovome se radu sinkronijskim opisom snimaka slobodnog govora i dijalektološkim upitnikom provela usporedna analiza ovih dvaju govora. Istraživanje, kojim su se utvrdile sličnosti i razlike navedenih idioma, obuhvaća fonološku, morfološku i leksičku razinu. Premda su govori u glavnini južnočakavski, u analizi su se iskristalizirale i mnoge štokavske jezične značajke.Karmen and Orebić are residential areas on the southwest side of the Pelješac peninsula.
