Summary/Abstract: Our work aims at presenting the way in which food as a research subject was configured in the Romanian linguistic questionnaire-based inquiries. We will focus on the creation of the linguistic inquiries as research instruments, approaching the four major Romanian institutionalized dialectal inquiries. The first two inquiries were indirect: B. P. Hasdeu’s linguistic inquiry started in 1884 for collecting dialectal terms for a dictionary of the Romanian language and the linguistic inquiry conducted by the Romanian Language Museum between 1922 and 1939. The following two institutional inquiries were direct: the first one was conducted by Sextil Puşcariu at the Romanian Language Museum for the Romanian Linguistic Atlas (alr I and alr II) between 1930 and 1938 and the other one following the project The New Romanian Linguistic Atlas (nalr), for which the inquiries took place in the 60s and 70s.
