In the present paper, dialectal designations of 'bricklayer', as registered in the 8th lexical volume of the General Slavonic Linguistic Atlas (OLA), are compared to earlier instances of those designations in the Slavonic area. The geographical distribution of the designations, in OLA published in detail, is here presented in outline only, but rare and sporadic designations, or those occuring in isolated cases beyond their core area, are located more precisely. The author deals with relations between literary designations and those, of dialectal origin, found in OLA, with the history of these designations, with how borrowings were spread in the Slavonic area as well as with changes in their teritorial distribution, i. e. all such phenomena that could not be included in OLA. This provides us with a more complex insight into the Slavonic designations of 'bricklayer' in dialects as well as in literary languages.

This paper analyzes Slavic equivalents of the words 'lungs' and 'liver' included in the 'General Slavic Linguistic Atlas' (OLA) in relation to dialectal material not included in the Atlas, as well as some additional data coming from contemporary and historical Slavic dictionaries. To facilitate the analysis of the words two synthetic maps have been created. These maps employ uniform technical solutions: they contain captions and identical cartographic signs for the words that occur in both meanings. A juxtaposition of the Slavic words for 'lungs' and 'liver' in the paper is motivated by the fact that some of these words refer both to the lungs and the liver, and they are distinguished only by certain adjectival modifiers, such as 'white' or 'light' referring to the lungs, and 'black' or 'heavy' in reference to the liver. Thus, the words for the lungs are quite uniform in terms of their semantic motivation (the main motivating feature is lightness), but in lexical terms they are quite diversified. Conversely, the words for the liver show a remarkable variation in motivation. Some of them point to the general meaning of an 'internal organ' (e.g. *otroba, *jetra), but in large linguistic areas in the North-East these words are motivated by a culinary tradition (e.g. *pecen'). Comparative material extracted from the sources other than the OLA has made it possible to illustrate shifts in the semantic ranges of many words, in particular the replacement of original Slavic terms by foreign borrowings in South Slavic.

The core of this article comprises material from The Slavic Linguistic Atlas which will serve to create two separate maps for the 9th volume of the lexical word-formation series of the Atlas entitled Man. The material was gathered according to the Atlas questionnaire and it covers the terms: L 1384 'rot' (mouth) and L 1388 'guby' /N pl/ (lips). The data bears etymological relation close enough to be presented in its entirety, with lexical units of the same origin grouped. The maps of the Atlas allow for a more precise definition of the domains of many linguistic phenomena. Lexemes covering the notions of 'outh' and 'lips' belong to basic vocabulary. Hence, conclusions drawn from etymological and geographical analysis of their differentiation allow - only to a certain degree and in a limited range - to define mutual linguistic relations.

SLAVIC WORDS FOR 'FACE' AND 'CHEEK' IN THE LIGHT OF DIALECTAL MATERIALS AND HISTORICAL SOURCES (Slowianskie nazwy 'twarzy' i 'policzka' w swietle materialow gwarowych i zrodel historycznych)

Many identical Slavic words refer to the face and the cheek. The maps included in the article show their geographic distribution. It is often the case that identical words are geographically excluded. Only some of them are sporadically found in the same locations when they carry the same meanings. In East Slavic, the words *licE/'face' and *scEka /'cheek\ have very similar ranges. There are also a lot of words that are not found within distinct aerial borders. A few words that refer to the face have been recorded over a large area, especially in Czech, Polish, Byelorussian, and Ukrainian dialects. They are shown on the map through a layering of surfaces and in some cases, also through layering of cartographic signs. This is particularly visible in an area East of Kiev. Synonyms often differ with respect to their stylistic marking. In literary languages some of them are considered pejorative or even vulgar. This negative stylistic marking is less prominent in dialects, where such words are at times considered to be completely neutral. The historical material illustrates the variation concerning the availability of certain names over time in different locations. Some of the older forms have become bookish and/or formal and now are only used in the literary language whereas some others went out of use completely. It is also worth noting that there have been instances of intra-Slavic borrowing, although there have been rather few of them and they normally express a pejorative meaning.

SLAVONIC NAMES OF 'HAIR' AS IN DIALECTIC MATERIAL AND HISTORICAL SOURCES (Slowianskie nazwy 'wlosów' w swietle materialów gwarowych i zródel historycznych)

The names of 'hair' from Slavic territories presented herein show a general development tendency, which is removing former multiple synonymic names and establishing one basic name, on certain territories. It can be seen mainly on the example of the root *vols' becoming widely recognized at the cost of another common Slavonic root *kosa. A certain influence on the decline of the root *kosa could have been exerted by the tendency to avoid homonymy with the word *kosa 'tool for mowing' (scythe). On eastern Slavic territories, as well as in Slovenia, in spite of the emergence of a similar tendency, an invariably frequent occurrence of opponent names and forms can be observed. A particular degree of complication can be seen in various plural forms and former collective formations occurring in opposition to the name *vols' and performing the same function.
