The Sulkovian dialect (Silesian: sulkowski djalekt; Polish: dialekt sułkowski) is one of the Silesian dialects, extracted by Feliks Steuer in his work Dialekt sułkowski (1934).[1][2] It is a part of the Silesian-Lach border dialects; its name derives from Steuer's native village Sulków.
The works Ostatni gwojźdźaurz and Z naszej źymjy ślůnskej were written in this dialect.[1]
The characteristic features of Sulkovian phonology are:
- the evolution of former long a into au, pronounced [aw];
- keeping of hard k and g in the combinations ky and gy, e.g. okynka (windows), pługy (ploughs);
- so-called "anticipation of softness" - adding the consonant j, e.g. kujźńa (smithy);
- the evolution of nasal vowel at the end of a word into am, e.g. cebulam (onion, the accusative case).[3]
