УНУТРАШЊА МИКРОРАСЛОЈЕНОСТ ГОВОРА ТУТИНСКО-НОВОПАЗАРСКО-СЈЕНИЧКЕ ЗОНЕ
THE INTERNAL MICROSTRATIFICATION IN THE SPEECH OF TUTIN-NOVI PAZAR-SJENICA ZONE

Summary/Abstract: In this work we study the occurrence of microstratification in the speech of Tutin, Novi Pazar and Sjenica, which belongs to the Zeta-Sjenica dialect. The internal stratification of the mentioned areal is, firstly, the consequence of its peripheral position. In its marginal regions the speeches of this zone are in contact with the speeches of Kosovo-Resava dialect on the one and of Eastern Herzegovinian dialect on the other hand, and the consequences of such contacts are also evinced in the linguistic system. Therefore, the first task of this work is to determine the linguistic traits which entered this speech as a result of interdialectal permeation and which are reflected through the territorial, horizontal stratification. Apart from that, in this speech, there is also a vertical stratification, which implies the differences conditioned by the speaker’s origin and confession. At different levels of linguistic structure, namely, there are noticeable features which are conditioned by non-internal linguistic factors, among which are especially noticeable contacts with other language speakers (Turkish and Albanian), which were taking place on this territory for centuries. The effect of the Turkish and Albanian language is primarily noticeable among the speakers of Muslim religion, and especially among those who descended from the Catholic Hoti tribe who immigrated to the Pešter Plateau from Albania. As a result of the mentioned factors, on the entire examined territory differences are noticeable which lead to the polarization in the speech of the Muslim folk, in which stronger presence of foreign elements and speeches of Christians is evinced, which to a great degree remains outside such influence. Determining the span and origin of such linguistic occurrences is also a matter of interest in this work.
