Summary/Abstract: This paper aims at threefold characteristics of the sociolinguistic (concerning correlations with selected sociological parameters), formal (referring to phonetic variation) and semantic (illustrating semantic heterogeneity) properties of Krajna-derived culinary Germanism eintopf. The research material was collected through questionnaire surveys conducted in November and December 2023. 240 respondents took part in the study; they were the natives of Krajna of peasant origin with a diverse sociobiographical profile (in terms of gender, age, place of residence, education and profession). The participants represented 110 locations within three subregions: north-western Krajna (Złotów), north-eastern Krajna (Sępólno Krajeńskie), and southern Krajna (Nakło nad Notecią), which made it possible to conduct a comparative analysis.
