Summary/Abstract: This paper analyzes the morphological structure in the language of documents stored in the Archive of the Savina Monastery, which date back to the eighteenth century and were written either at the monastery or in its surroundings. The study was conducted in order to observe when they were penetrated by Russian Church Slavonic morphological characteristics. Particular attention is paid to individual, regional features typical of Northwest Boka and the wider region of eastern Herzegovina.The analysis indicates that the influence of Russian Church Slavonic as well as the preservation of Serbian Church Slavonic morphological characteristics began in the mid-eighteenth century. It seems it was conditioned by the social status of the participants in the correspondences as well as by the thematic areas in a particular text. Some regionalisms that were typical of contemporary speech in this region were also recorded in these texts.
