Subdialect of Slovene
The Rižana subdialect (rižanski govor ,[1] rižansko podnarečje [2] ) is a Slovene subdialect of the Istrian dialect in the Littoral dialect group . It is spoken in Italy in most of the municipalities of San Dorligo della Valle and Muggia (Milje ) south of Trieste , as well as in some southern suburbs of Trieste (especially Servola ); in Slovenia, it is spoken in the northern part of Slovene Istria , in the Rižana Valley east and north of Koper , including the settlements of Bertoki , Dekani , Osp , Črni Kal , Presnica , Podgorje , and Zazid .[2] [3]
Phonological and morphological characteristics [ edit ]
Like the Šavrin Hills subdialect , the Rižana subdialect is based on characteristics of the Lower Carniolan and Littoral dialect groups. Accented vowels do not have length contrast. Secondary palatalization of the velars k g h has arisen before front vowels.[4] Verbal conjugation lacks the dual . The two subdialects share many lexical features, with many loanwords from Romance languages .
