SUPPLEMENTS TO THE DICTIONARY OF THE LAZŪNAI DIALECT

The speech of the Lazūnai area, one of the most archaic and distinctive dialects of the Lithuanian language, is now on the verge of disappearing entirely in present-day Belarus (Grodno region, the Vija, or Ivia, district). In 1890, according to data collected through local elders by A. Plater and processed by Anonymous (J. Rozwadowski?), 3,559 Lithuanian-speaking people were recorded in the so-called Lazūnai area (which at the time comprised the Bókštas, Jūrėtiškės, and Lugamėnai rural districts of the Ašmena county). When Jonas Jablonskis visited in 1906, he saw for himself how widely Lithuanian was still spoken there at the time; at the same time, however, he lamented that there were already many “Gud-speakers,” who, although they knew Lithuanian, were already speaking the so-called plain language—that is, the local East Slavic (Belarusian, or “poprostu”) dialect—within families, especially mixed ones. It is therefore likely that at the time more than 6,000 people in the Lazūnai, Dūdos, and partly Bókštas parishes knew Lithuanian. In 1957, elderly people who understood Lithuanian and could still speak it a little were found even in the village of Vinkšnėnai, which belongs to the Vija parish.

After the First World War, private Lithuanian schools, and later reading rooms, were still being established in the villages of Bebrėnai, Daunoriai, Lazūnai, and Pāsaliai, but they were quickly shut down by Polish officials. The priest Gumbaragis, who served as a vicar in Lazūnai and had done much for local Lithuanian culture, was deported. A highly hostile atmosphere was created for Lithuanian speakers. B. Maknickas, born in 1908 in Saliniai village, and M. Varanelytė, born in 1910 in Mėgūnai village, recall how difficult it was for them, when they were already nearly grown, to begin speaking “poprostu.”

In 1952–1960, Lithuanian linguists still found quite a number of older-generation people here who knew Lithuanian. Sadly, time cruelly thinned their ranks; during the 1988 field trip, only five elderly people who spoke Lithuanian well remained: Petras Žaldokas (1903–1989), from Bebrėnai village, who lived near Lazūnai village; Bronius Maknickas, born in 1908 in Saliniai village, now living in Daunoriai village; Bronius Varanėlis, born in 1912 in Pasaliai village; Jasius Avižius, born in 1913 in Pasaliai village; and the youngest, Filimona Varanelytė-Avižičienė, born in 1925 in Pasaliai village. There are considerably more elderly people who understand Lithuanian and can still speak it a little, but they have already forgotten too much of their parents’ language for linguists to gain much from them.

It is always difficult to inventory a language’s lexicon, or vocabulary, because it is an unlimited system, open to influences and constantly changing. Therefore, recording absolutely every existing, former, and possible word of a language or dialect is hardly possible at all.

160

The first printed edition of the Dictionary of the Lazūnai Dialect (V., 1985; hereafter LTŽ) included only words collected by the authors up to 1982. However, during their annual visits thereafter, the authors continued to collect words or meanings that had not made it into the dictionary. A particularly substantial batch accumulated in 1988, when material was collected here over a longer period according to the lexicology program of the Atlas of European Languages.

The supplements consist mainly of forms and meanings of derivatives of words (roots) documented earlier but not included in LTŽ. These include prefixed formations (e.g., pasi-agraštáuti, papa-akėti, pri-miklyti), suffixed derivatives (e.g., -audinėti, -mušdėti, malkėlė feminine noun, diminutive,¹ malkinė feminine noun, rietuvėlė feminine noun, diminutive), and semantic, or meaning-based, formations (calques) or derivatives (e.g., baronáitis “snipe,” broliukas “orphan girl,” dėgintis “to look for hedgehogs”).

Some reflexive verbs are absent from LTŽ (e.g., gyvėntis, pasinorėti, tašytis), and conversely, LTŽ records only reflexive verbs, while their non-reflexive counterparts are missing (e.g., daklausti, prisikandalyti, dažinoti).

There are present-tense forms formed differently, for example: dėnga, grūsta, klėmpa, kliūdžia, minkia, mirkia, alongside the forms listed in LTŽ, dengia, grūva, klimpsta, minko... A few verbs are recorded with prefixes that have not been shortened, for example: apimti (Apijama lakštus, apijama [kolorado vabalų] kap vuogų, až raudonoz búlboš Psl.), ažušinti (Tep kartų gyvuoninį pašimų ažušyniau Psl.).

Because of the dialect’s decline and close contact with Slavic languages, the stems of some words vary (e.g., gražtuvas, skietỹs, žibankštis; cf. LTŽ gražtūvis, skietas, žibankštė), as do number (e.g., matavýlai, salotá; cf. LTŽ matavýlas, salótos) and gender (e.g., ėsliai, stotyvà; cf. LTŽ ėsles, stotyvas).

A considerable number of words were recorded with different stress placement, for example: boikùs, -i adjective (4) (Oi boikùs bernùkaz búvo Psl.), čeraunýkas masculine noun (2) (Kūnigas žinój, što ėnas čėraunýkas Psl.). dziędai masculine plural noun (2) (In dziędų gi gatávija válgyc gerau jau Bbr.), ketūrnỹtis masculine noun (1) (Ketūrnỹcis itai vadzinos Bbr.), merkavóti (Jaūgi jūs tep mūsi merkavójat Psl.), miedzis feminine noun (4) (Miedzis geltóna, graži Psl.), pirkdyti (Ariėlky reikėj pīrgdzyc, o grašų nebūvo Bbr.), reštinis, -ė adjective (2) (Nubėgo reštinis autobusas un Jūrótiskes Psl.). visokis, -ià definite pronoun (4) (Rinko ir rinko mani: ir balšavýkai, ir niėmčai, ir visokià chalėrija Psl.), zakristijà feminine noun (2) (Pilnà zakristijà tų bóbu Psl.), žvaigždė feminine noun (2) (Žvaigždė kàktoj Psl.).

Also worth noting separately are some more interesting forms or uses of familiar words that were not included in LTŽ, for example: abidvėp adverb (Manip gi abidvėp dukterėp mašinos šåvos: ir vienåp, ir kitåp Psl.), arkliūoj instrumental (O tep arkliūoj važinėja, rovarais važinėja Psl.), tåvo ne bėdà “not your problem” (Tåvo ne bėdà, aš móku aškalbėc šūnį, šūnes nelós Psl.), pribūtas, -à “arrived” (Cia visi žmonės pribūci, svečimi Rbr.), jiemiem (In-sàkė jiemiem Psl.), radusỹs “having come to be” (Visókių familių búvo radusỹs Bbr.), prieg šventėmjiem (Sirgo i po tôm gi nùmirė un visų švintūjų, prieg visiem švintėmjiem Psl.), tamiñ preposition (Aš jūmi umpilsiu poperålin tamiñ nuožuolnės karós Psl.) káliep

¹The spelling and abbreviations of the examples given below (e.g., adj., dem., sl, Bbr, Dnr, Psl, etc.) are the same as in LTŽ. Word forms presented here in the introduction with illustrative sentences are not repeated further on in the dictionary supplements. Nor are the new borrowings given without sentences repeated.

As a result of language attrition and close contact with Slavic languages, many different hybrids and borrowings occur, along with variation in individual sounds, e.g.: baraznà sf. (4), cf. ežia (Ir toj baraznà, nēr ažōs, o kad būt gi ažā Psl.), bōbočka sf. (4), cf. bōba, bobulė (Bōbočka, rassākai mūmi skāškų Psl.), ōlena sf. (1) “bone,” padāšva sf. (4), cf. pādas, padōbnai adv., cf. padābnas (Giema kap bāciuska padōbnai Psl.), ponedielnykas sm.

(2), cf. udaũčius (Ītai udavā su udaucių apsižānio ir dār radāisi aš juosnī Psl.), žōratka sf. (1), cf. žōaratka. A considerable number of them are clear occasionalisms. One man from Joskūnai (Samuelis), who had not spoken Lithuanian for a long time, wishing to say

the word arklyš added the root for “horse,” saying: žirklyš ir kumelė, but then continued: Nüvedė arklūš ganýc Jsk.

The names of the months are now used mostly in their Slavic forms, although some people also know the Lithuanian equivalents, e.g.: saušis sm. (2) — stičnius sm. (2), vasaris sm. (2) — liūtasai sm. (2), kóvas sm. (1) — mórčius sm. (2), balandis sm. (2) — kvietnius sm. (2), May sf. (2) — mójus sm. (2), biržėlis sm. (2) — čėrvcus sm. (2), liepas sm. (1) — lipcus sm. (2), rugpjūtis sm.

There are relatively few new root words or new meanings of words in the supplements. Most of these are borrowings and often duplicate Lithuanian words. This is clearly evident from the references to words or meanings already found in LTŽ. Principal forms are given only for new verbs (suffixal derivatives and borrowings). The other various prefixed or reflexive forms, apart from an occasional discrepancy, are isolated and generally do not differ from analogous formations in LTŽ.

First, Lithuanian vocabulary is presented, i.e. words with Lithuanian roots. Also included are international words that have undergone little change and old borrowings incorporated into the literary language. In all, this part of the vocabulary makes up about three fifths of the supplements:

SUPPLEMENT TO THE “DICTIONARY OF THE LAZŪNAI DIALECT”

Abstract

The article presents words from the Lazūnai dialect (the villages of Bakštai and Lazdūnai, Iwye District, Grodno Region, Byelorussian SSR) that the authors collected in 1983—1988 and that were not included in the “Dictionary of the Lazūnai Dialect” (1985). The introductory notes provide a brief grammatical description of the vocabulary presented and mention that at the beginning of the 20th century approximately 6,000 people still spoke Lithuanian in the dialect area, whereas at present only a few elderly people do.

The collected vocabulary (with illustrative sentences) consists of two parts. The first part presents words with Lithuanian roots, as well as old loanwords and international words used in the dialect system as they are in the standard Lithuanian language. The second part lists recent or entirely new loanwords and hybrids.
