Summary/Abstract: Historical circumstances contributed to the current Ruthenian language in Vojvodina, where traces of contact with several languages of the Carpathian area can be found. Migration of Ruthenians from parts of today’s eastern Slovakia and north-eastern Hungary, only enriched these traces. In this paper, the focus will be on contrasting the Ruthenian language with Eastern Slovak dialects. More precisely, the agricultural lexicon of the Ruthenian language in Vojvodina will be paralleled to that of the Eastern Slovak dialects. In the paper, lexemes based on which conclusions can be drawn about the similarities of the lexemes of this subject area in the Ruthenian language in Vojvodina with the Eastern Slovak dialects are presented. Through the analysis, characteristics which support this claim are emphasized. Additionally, lexemes which have an identical form in Eastern Slovak and Western Ukrainian dialects are found. When it comes to the origin of these lexemes, they are mostly words of Slavic origin
