Nieliterackie źródła do dziejów słownictwa polskiego (do XVIII w.). Cz. I
Non-literary sources for the history of Polish vocabulary (until the 18th century). Part I

Summary/Abstract: The author discusses non-literary sources for the history of Polish vocabulary from the period from the 16th to the 18th century. They are not always taken into account by the editors of the newest historical dictionaries, despite the fact that they contain a wealth of interesting vocabulary from various areas of everyday life of peasants and townsmen, from the history of law and judicature, trade, craft, military, etc. Many of those words have survived till our times, constituting a lasting legacy of Polish vocabulary and a testimony of the history of culture.
