Phonology

[edit]

Typical of Lesser Polish dialects (as well as Greater Polish dialects), voicing of word-final consonants before vowels and liquids is present here. Also typical of Lesser Polish dialects is the presence of mazuration. Initial accent is present here.[1]

Vowels

[edit]

The group eł shifts to oł, and ił/ył shifts to uł both tautosyllabically and heterosyllabically.[1]

Slanted vowels

[edit]

Slanted á is retained as á or raises to o. Slanted é raises to y after both hard and soft consonants. Slanted ó is retained as ó.[1]

Nasal vowels

[edit]

The nasal vowels in the Łącko dialect approached one another in realization, but never fully merged. ę both medially and finally shifts to -o, and ą to ó, except instrumental feminine singular of nouns, where it is -om. The groups eN and aN both shift to oN.[1]

Prothesis

[edit]

Initial o- usually labializes to ô-. Initial a- may gain a prothetic h- or j- in some words.[1]

Consonants
