Summary/Abstract: The paper examines the use first and foremost of slangisms in the novels “Nero the Wolf” by Hr. Kalchev and “Rivers of Babylon” by P. Pišťanek. The complex relationships between sociolects (slang, argot, jargon, professional language), as well as their interaction with the standard language variety are discussed. Examples from the quoted novels are provided, evidencing the change in the status of sociolectisms (lexemes passing from slang to standardized colloquial lexis, to the substandard layer of the language – in the Slovak language environment, the formation of an intermediate layer between slang and professional language), as well as the flexible and easily surmountable borders between sociolects.
