Classic players of role-playing games (RPG) form a speech community due to the fact that they use a sociolect of their own making. This subtype of national language, contingent on a particular group, has been built upon social ties resulting from common interests. The variant is based on the colloquial language style merged with the role-playing game terminology (official phrases), sociolectal lexemes (non-official) and their foreign equivalents (mostly English). The structure of the sociolect studied here allows for classifying it as a professional sociolect since it is characterized by the preponderance of professional and communication resources of language over primarily expressive ones. However, it is necessary to emphasize that various types of sociolects are separated with fuzzy borders and have vague semantic scopes.

Polish novels, that were written on the verge of nineteenth and twentieth century and in the first half of the twentieth century, are valuable and credible sources that can be used for the research on the question of the linguistic and cultural differentiation of the yeomanry villages and estates. These works of literature reveal the images of life and communication between members of the yeomanry class. The researched novels were created by famous Polish writers, Eliza Orzeszkowa, Maria Rodziewiczówna and Czeslaw Milosz, who are also unchallenged experts on reality of the North-Eastem 'Kresy' (Borderland). Three literary visions of the yeomanry estates, that represent three regions: Grodno/Hrodna ('Nad Niemnem' and 'Bene nati' by Eliza Orzeszkowa), Kowno/Kaunas ('Dolina Issy' by Czeslaw Milosz) and Samogitia/Zmudz/Zemaitija ('Dewajtis' by Maria Rodziewiczówna), are confronted willi the available case studies, containing historical-cultural and sociolinguistic characteristics of the Polish communities on the terrain of the former North-Eastem Borderland. The aim of the analysis was to select the constitutive linguistic, cultural and social factors, that characterize the inhabitants of the yeomanry villages and estates regardless of their territorial affiliation. The other goal that is connected with this paper is to recognize their otherness caused by historic, geographic and environmental conditions.

The language of young Old Believers is analyzed in this paper on the basis of records gathered during scientific camps organized in Gabowe Grady and Bór near Augustów by Nicolas Copernicus University (Torun) in 1999, 2001, 2004, and 2005. The Russian dialect of the investigated villages is nowadays strongly influenced by the Polish language. There are numerous loan words (adapted and non-adapted) and loan translation from Polish in the speech of our informants. Some phenomena can be considered typical for the sociolect of young Old Believers. The differences between individual cases (idiolects) are caused by socio- and psycholinguistic factors, such as personal attitude to the traditional dialect, and cultural and religious heritage, the individual language competence, the ability to produce elaborated code, prestige of the Old Believers dialect in primary groups, the unity of religious conviction in the informant's family and the dialect's social position at school and at work. Although some of the informants were recorded several times, no serious changes have been noticed: further long-term research is needed.

The paper deals with the communication within hobby and professional groups. Relying on Slovak as well as foreign literature and researches, the author describes how specific features of the communication in the given environment can be analysed. She claims that such communication can be studied partially or comprehensively – partial researches rely on the analysis of a particular level of language (mainly lexical) and deal with non-standard lexical components of sociolect (slang, argot, professionalisms); complex researches rely on the communication situation and other situational parameters and deal with the communication register. Based on the characteristics of slang, argot, and professionalisms and on the relationship between sociolect and communication register, the communication within given spheres can be comprehensively analysed by induction or deduction – from non-standard lexis to sociolect to communication register or vice versa.

The article deals with the meaning of the term 'idiolect' in connection with the related sociolinguistic terms 'etnolect', 'sociolect', 'genderlect', 'cryptolect', as well as the research strategy oriented toward sociological parameters of the speaker, communication situation and time span over which the communication is taking place. The term idiolect is brought into correlation with the stylistic concept 'idiostyle'. The authoress stresses the need to take into consideration sociolinguistic parameters of the linguistic personality of the writer and distinguish the textual discourse in the study of the idiolect as a linguistic and artistic phenomenon.
