Wojciech Hofmański Logo ORCID

Abstract

The paper attempts to discuss the Silesian ethnolect from two different points of view. The first one is determined by the current status of research, including above all the identifiable areas of shortcomings in the field. The other goes beyond the Polish perspective that prevails in the Silesian studies discourse. The author discusses the progress of work on a Silesian language corpus, interactive research into Slavic languages in the context of intercomprehension, as well as the matched-guise technique, potentially making it possible to assess the perception of the Silesian ethnolect in the area where it is present. The research scopes indicated are considered to be of key importance in the context of the description of the condition and status of the ethnolect.
