This paper presents manifestations of dialect users’ language awareness in the area of vocabulary. Rural inhabitants can point to old and new words referring to a given designatum. They realise that lexis changes, that some words go out of use and are replaced by others. The process of lexemes passing from active to passive vocabulary is demonstrated by semantic fi elds: a human being, body parts, illnesses, clothes, weaver’s craft, household appliances, dishes, buildings and their parts, animals, plants, agriculture, units of measure, human gatherings. Examples of old and new anthroponyms and toponyms are also provided. The dialectal material has been drawn from two dictionaries: Słownik gwar polskich (Dictionary of Polish Dialects) and Słownik gwar Ostródzkiego, Warmii i Mazur (Dictionary of the Dialects of the Ostróda, Warmia and Masuria Regions) and their indexes.
