Summary/Abstract: Our literature offers many works of art that use social background for their basis. One says about Ćamil Sijarić that he is a writer of Bihor (Sandžak), which is a natural statement because it is normal that an artist, having lived in a certain place for a certain period of time, uses all elements of their material and spiritual culture, and they serve as an artistic potential he embodies into his work. One of the most important potential, in this case, is the language. Having borrowed it from a folklore-rich environment, Sijarić planted it into his artistic expression, for he was able to establish a specific relationship between the language of his homeland and the standard language, but at the same time stay of traps of localisms. He managed to pour a large number of linguistic features of his homeland language into his work, mostly to distinguish the speech of his numerous characters.
