SIMILARITIES AND SPECIFICITIES OF GERMANISMS IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF BOSANSKA KRAJINA

Summary/Abstract: Borrowings from the German language in the linguistic literature are called Germanisms. They are part of the integrated lexicon that entered the Bosnian language as a result of Bosnian-German language contacts. Through this paper, their presence in the areas of the Bosnian Krajina is analyzed and the results of research on Germanisms in the language of the most widely read newspapers in the Bosnian-speaking area of the Bosnian Krajina are presented. These are the daily newspapers "Dnevni Avaz" and the weekly local newspapers "Krajina", "Moja Sana" and "Reprezent" (published between 2008 and 2020). The research was conducted on 8420 excerpted Germanisms. The main goal of this paper is to identify Germanisms, and to present their representation and distribution in regional newspapers. First, Germanisms were excerpted from the supraregional newspaper "Dnevni Avaz", which is the most widely read in Bosnian cities. Then the local newspapers of Bihać, Sanski Most and Velika Kladuša were taken into account. A separate corpus was compiled for each newspaper, which was then compared with other corpora in order to show the similarities and specifics of Germanism in different parts of the Bosnian Krajina. The result is several Germanisms specific to the Bosnian Krajina-speaking area.
