V prispevku je predstavljen raziskovalni projekt Raziskave ogroženih narečij v slovenskem jezikovnem prostoru (Radgonski kot, Gradiščanska, Hum na Sutli z okolico, Dubravica z okolico), v okviru katerega se bodo določile meje treh slovenskih narečij zunaj Slovenije, to je prekmurskega narečja v Radgonskem kotu in na Gradiščanskem v Avstriji ter srednještajerskega in kozjansko-bizeljskega narečja na Hrvaškem.

The article presents Slovenian dialect names for cutlery used in eating or preparing food – spoon, knife and fork, from a geolinguistic, word-formational as well as etymological and semantic-motivational perspective. The ethnological framework serves in particular to present the reasons for the (non-)borrowing of lexemes. It turns out that the terms for spoon and knife are not diverse from the point of view of borrowing, since the denotata have been in use in the Slovenian language area for a relatively long time. The fork was introduced relatively late as part of cutlery, so the most common name for it is a word-formational diminutive, and a high level of lexeme borrowing is observed in contact with the non-Slavic language area. The name for knife demonstrates word-formational diversity due to different uses in the past. The lexemes nožič, vilice and razsoška or plural razsoške have undergone a word-formational change, as they have kept their structural suffixes, but these do not (or rather, no longer) carry word-formational meaning; they are thus tautological derivations. The lexemes nož and pošada display a semantic change, as the meaning of both has narrowed in the hypernym → hyponym direction.

This article shows a possible secondary interpretation of the dialect material in volume 1 of Slovenski lingvistični atlas (Slovenian Linguistic Atlas, SLA 1), published in 2011. It focuses on derivatives with the suffix -ica that were classified according to the morpheme structure of the suffix and the part-of-speech category of the motivated word. The frequency and geographical distribution of the expressions analyzed are determined using a word-formation map.
