This article analyzes seven selected nouns in Čakavian dialect that have not been discussed in the literature on Slavic etymology so far. These are the following nouns: halupa (haļupa, harupa) ‘a modest house, cottage’, istavje / istovje ‘space in front of abread oven; eaves, space over something’, kuča ‘a bundle, abunch of plants; abouquet’, litka and glitek ‘calf’, pesto ‘wheel hub’, and synonymous derivatives pešča, pešče, slota ‘inclement weather, storm’, žinja ‘string; hair from a horse’s tail’ (and žima ‘bristle from ahorse’s tail’). The lexemes under investigation expand the list of the Čakavian dialectal words that are of the Proto-Slavic origin and enrich our knowledge about the heritage of the Croatian lexis. They also complete or correct the existing information about the geography of selected Proto-Slavic lexemes on the Slavic territory.
