Summary/Abstract: The introduction of the following article focuses on the definition of the term dialectology and its role in language. The problem of distinction between terms “dialect”, “slang”, and ”spoken dialect” has been discussed. A classification of dialecticisms into phonetic, grammatical, and lexical forms has been proposed. The main part of the article includes examples of dialecticisms used in selected historical novels. They were briefly characterized (together with their etymology) and compared to other languages, contemporary Ukrainian among them. The final part discusses the purpose of the use of dialecticisms in literature and indicates their functions.
