Summary/Abstract: The paper studies and analyses the morphological properties of the language used in the travel book Poklonjenije grobu Gospodnju by Andrej Petković from 1734. The declinations and conjugations are characterised by the linguistic traits pertaining to the Serbian and Sebian-Slavic languages. Their frequency varies depending on the content of the texts. The chapters describing churches and detailing the life of Jesus Christ are dominated by the Serbian-Slavic language properties (declinational suffixes that disappeared from the vernacular in the course of the historical development, the use of participle). The chapters depicting actual travelling are governed by the characteristics of the Serbian vernacular – Shtokavian, local and Šumadija-Vojvodina dialects (declinations and conjugations, adding particles).
