Sažetak
The aim of the paper is to analyze the scope of lexical variation found in SE Čakavian in order to determine the degree of shift or levelling taking place. We do this by means of apparent time analysis of several local insular SE varieties of Čakavian. It has already been shown that the Romance lexical stratum has been prone to erosion and substitution with alternative models. Our focus is on analyzing the relative resistence of certain parts of the lexicon, the preferred linguistic models in the processes of levelling and change, the motives for maintenance and shift found at the lexical level, and finally the linguistic outcomes of the mentioned processes as well as their role in local identification of the speakers through language.
