Summary/Abstract: The noun declension system of the Eastern Aukštaitian Subdialect of Northern Panevėžiškiai has not been thoroughly studied. Generally speaking, there are no comprehensive studies addressing the morphology of this subdialect. The analysis and description of the interaction of stems in the Eastern Aukštaitian Subdialect of Northern Panevėžiškiai, its types and conditions resort to the Natural Morphology research methods. Nouns are analysed using the synchronic method first proposed by Girdenis and Rosinas in 1977.
