Etymologiczny słownik polskich gwarowych nazw roślin jako kontynuacja badań zespołu profesora Eugeniusza Pawłowskiego

Abstract

The primary aim of the prospective etymological dictionary of Polish dialectal plant names is to trace the origin of selected Polish dialectal wild plant names in the context of other Slavic and European languages. What is more, the dictionary will present the history of Polish dialectal plant names, their chronology, semantic motivation as well as their semantic evolution. The beginnings of entries will consist of two elements: the Latin scientific plant names and the Polish scientific plant names, which are necessary for the identification of the species. Each entry will comprise all dialectal names for a given species, which will be grouped (together with metaphorical names) according to their semantic motivation. The publication will encompass various registers of plant names (Latin scientific names, Polish scientific names, Polish dialectal names, Slavic names, European names).
