Źródła etnograficzne i teksty folkloru jak baza empiryczna słownika gwarowego (na przykładzie Kujaw)
Ethnographic sources and folkloric texts as an empirical basis for the dictionary of a dialect (on the example of the Kujawy region)

Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the issues of using the ethnographic material and folkloric texts in the dictionaries of dialects. The aforementioned problems have been present in the scientific discourse since 1970s. Those issues are echoed in the selection of sources creating the empirical base for the dictionary of culture and dialect of Kujawy. A lexicon that records dialectal vocabulary of different chronology allows such “crossing” of dialectologicaland ethnographic data. The collection of dialectal texts from Kujawy is too limited to constitute the basis of analyzed vocabulary. Thus, the lexicon of dialectal vocabulary will be in that case based on many specialist studies in the field of verbal folklore and material culture of the villages of Kujawy. For example, the word ‘pindyrynda’ was chosen to show how to reconstruct a polysemic name, when dialectological data are combined with ethnographic ones.
