Summary/Abstract: Following К. Schumann’s classification, the paper establishes 8 of the 23 possible types of loan translations and semantic loans in the Renaissance Croatian drama. At the same time, two new types of calquing are also identified: “Lehngebrauch der Rektionen von Verben und Substantiven“ and “syntaktische Lehngebrauch der Rektionen der Lehnwörter“. In using loan translations or semantic loans the authors’ individual choice is for the lexical types, while in terms of syntactic loans the widespread and generally accepted forms are preferred.
