Summary/Abstract: This paper focuses on variation of substantive forms used in the end of 19th century in the Slovak literary language and its nature. Some of them were present in Ľ. Štúr’s codification yet, but others penetrated into Slovak literary language later. There were diverse sources of forming variation: previous codification of Slovak literary language, West Slovak dialect, Central Slovak dialect, Czech language, etc. Such variety of homonymic forms was superfluous and it was abolished in consequence of S. Czambel’s codification.
