Pannonian dialect group
Map of regional groups of Slovene dialects
Pannonian
The Pannonian dialect group (panonska narečna skupina), or northeastern dialect group, is a group of closely related dialects of Slovene. The Pannonian dialects are spoken in northeastern Slovenia (Prekmurje, in the eastern areas of Slovenian Styria), and among the Hungarian Slovenes.
Phonological and morphological characteristics
Among other features, this group is characterized by loss of pitch accent, non-lengthened short syllables, and a new acute on short syllables.[1]
Individual dialects and subdialects
- Prekmurje dialect (prekmursko narečje, prekmurščina[2]).[Note 1]
- Slovenian Hills dialect (goričansko narečje, goričanščina[5])
- Prlekija dialect (prleško narečje, prleščina[6])
- Haloze dialect (haloško narečje, haloščina[7])
Notes
- ↑ According to some researchers, the Prekmurje dialect is a regional literary language because it has a standardized grammar, a long history of separated development and a large number of written sources.[3] However, this view is disputed.[4]
