Summary/Abstract: The origin and functions of the names of the type Pod Górą, and Za Lasem have been examined on the basis of 598 locality names collected in 97 places of the Lublin area. The author aimed at examining their syntactic uses in the colloquial speech of its inhabitants. The single catchword entries were derived from rich sets of synonyms obtained from answers to questions: Where? Where from? Where to?
