Summary/Abstract: The literary work of Rexhep Qosja stands out for lexical richness. An important source of lexical enrichment of his novels is the popular language, from which he received words, expressions, and phrases of daily use, as well as dialect words. The layer of words from dialectical discourse settle down a visible place in all his novels, and comes as a lexical and stylistic enriching element. This dialectical lexical gamma includes words from various conceptual areas related to Albanian life in general, words and expressions that reflect the material and spiritual world. The dialectic lexicon in his work is used to characterize the language of the personage or the environment, as well as the language of the autor. Qosja uses various dialectical words of different lexicon-grammatical categories, the richest category are the nouns. In general, the dialectic material in Qosja's novels is from the northeastern Albanian dialects, especially from the highlands and surrounding areas, and from the rural and urban areas of Kosovo (especially Pristina). Dialect elements are used with expressive-stylistic functions and with marking functions. Through the use of this layer of lexicon, have been achieved new meaning, new colorings, special meaningful nuances ect. The author, with particular creative mastery, has synthesized certain dialectical features into the national general.
