Abstract
Istrian and karstic dialectal area is a region in which for hundreds and hundreds of years we can find interactions of different cultures. The phenomenon is reflected on many levels. On the lexical level the field of research is very complex. A century old symbiosis of romance, slavic and germanic languages is present. From linguistic point of view the most important is the lexical stratification of idioms which are strongly influenced by the neibghbouring ones. The reason for the mentioned situation we can find also in the historical development of economical-geographical micro regions (ecclesiastical afference, natural position, maritim activities, comunications).
