Chakavian  

Definition

  • Chakavian is a South Slavic supradialect or language spoken by Croats along the Adriatic coast; by the Burgenland Croats in southeastern Austria, northwestern Hungary and southwestern Slovakia; as well as few municipalities in southern Slovenia on the border with Croatia. Chakavian represents the basis for early literary standards in Croatia, and until the modern age was simply known and understood, along with the Kajkavian and Shtokavian idioms in Croatia, as the Croatian language (hrvatski jezik). Along with Bosnian, Montenegrin and Serbian, Croatian Standard language belongs to the Shtokavski branch. Chakavian is classified within the Slavic group of the Balto-Slavic branch of Indo-European languages, the world’s largest by number of native speakers.
