Summary/Abstract: An intention of this paper is to present results of empirical research into the lingual-communication behaviour of the Slovak youth in Slovakia and Hungary. This research was conducted in both countries during the 2010. The investigation focused on spoken expressions of the Slovak language in surroundings which are typical for the application of the written language as a form of a social contact in school – with friends, peers and in family. The referential framework of this article consists of three analytical levels: analysis of a knowledge degree of the Slovak and Hungarian language (in the case of the Slovak language its lingual appearances are analysed); inter-generation relations of the lingual communication; analysis of mutual contexts (dependence on identification signs).
