Abstract
The project focuses diachronically and synhronically on the Slovenian standard and dialectal lexicology in the period from the 16th to the 20th centuries. It includes the orthography, pronunciation, meaning, sense relation, stylistics, word formation and phraseology of words and collocations (also in comparison to German and English). It is a study of the lives of words, such as newly compound nominal groups, neologisms and the neutral vocabulary of individual periods, including their transferring to the linguistic margins and their gradual disappering from the Slovenian standard and dialectal vocabulary. The contrastive part of the research takes into consideration the ways and the field that German and English as the "contact" languages during (many centuries) had on the Slovene language. The influence has been observed in terms of words and phraseology.
