Middle Čakavian

Middle Čakavian

Middle Čakavian (Croatian: srednječakavski dijalekt) is one of the dialects of the Čakavian Croatian dialect system.

It is spoken on the territory lying between the Northern Čakavian and Southern Čakavian dialect: it covers the islands of Dugi otok, Kornati, Lošinj, Krk, Rab, Pag, and on the land the cities of Vinodol, Ogulin, Brinje, Otočac and the area around Duga Resa.

This dialect is peculiar for its mixed Ikavian/Ekavian reflex of Common Slavic yat phoneme, which was governed by Meyer-Jakubinskij's law.
