The paper presents the research on the Slovak language carried out in Cracow since 2000, focusing on book publications. The main subject of interest was Slovak-Polish contrastive studies involving literary languages, led by specialized linguists affiliated at the Department of the Slavonic Philology of the Jagiellonian University (H. Mieczkowska: numerals, dynamics of the nominal inflection, recent changes in the lexical subsystems; M. Papierz: pronouns, semantic syntax; E. Orwińska: interjections, secondary prepositions). Apart from these, the Slovak linguistic material is constantly used by historical linguists, etymologists, onomasticians and dialectologists (both Polonists and Slavists) working in Cracow. The latter direction seems at the same time to be the most promising for the future.
