Project/Map Description:
The dialects of Slovene are thought to be more diverse than the dialects of any other Slavonic language. This level of diversity can lead to incomprehensibility within Slovenia. Dialectology studies on Slovene can often result in uncovering 35 - 50 different Slovene dialects and subdialects, but this map shows the main dialect groups of Slovene which are often agreed upon.
