WILD BIRD NAMES IN OLD AND CONTEMPORARY DIALECTOLOGICAL MATERIAL FROM GREATER POLAND

Summary/Abstract: The dialectological record of wild bird names is scant. This article presents the Greater Polish material covering wild bird names obtained as part of the field research carried out in the Pobiedzisko commune (Poznań poviat) and completed in 2022. Contemporary names are juxtaposed with the dialectal material collected by Adam Tomaszewski (the 1930s) and the material found in Atlas języka i kultury ludowej Wielkopolski (Atlas of Greater Poland’s regional language and folk culture) (the 1970s and the 1980s) for the same area. The overview of the old and contemporary material allows conclusions on the functioning of dialectal and general Polish names of wild birds gathered by three generations of Poznań dialectologists and indication of the research needs as regards recording names from the thematic field NATURE (not only bird names).
