Streszczenie
The purpose of this article is to present and discuss several dialect plant names from the
„plant word” thematic field in the speech of the Poles of Lviv region. These are lexical units
having no equivalents in other regions of the country or having them in an incomplete range
of meaning. The lexis of the dialect in the studied Polish language is also subjected to various
foreign influeces, which also must be taken into account when reconstructing the processes
that shape the given form in Polish dialects. The generational breakdown shows that dialect
plant names in their local meaning will cause significant difficulties for dialect users over
time.
