Eastern Slovak or Slovjak dialects ((スロバキア語:východoslovenské nárečia, východniarčina)), are dialects of the Slovak language spoken natively in the historical regions of Spiš, Šariš, Zemplín and Abov,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nárečový svojraz východného Slovenska )〕 in the east of Slovakia. In contrast to other dialects of Slovak, Eastern dialects are less intelligible with Czech and more with Polish and Rusyn, as well as using a higher number of Hungarian and Romanian loanwords. The name ''Slovjak'', now somewhat archaic, is derived from the common East Slovak ethnonym. Features of the dialects vary greatly from region to region, but features which are common throughout all dialects include the lack of long vowels, stress on the penultimate syllable, as in Polish and Rusyn, as opposed to the first syllable stress normal in standard Slovak,〔 and variation in noun declension endings. Eastern Slovak dialects also share many features of Western Slovak dialects which are absent from Central dialects and standard Slovak, supporting the idea that Central Slovakia was colonized more recently than the east and west of the country. Attempts to create an East Slovak literary standard have been varied and unsuccessful. Several Slovak newspapers founded in the United States in the late 19th century, including ''Slovák v Amerike'' ("Slovak in America") and ''Amerikánsko-Slovenské Noviny'' (The American-Slovak News), were initially written in Eastern Slovak dialects. ==History== The Slovak language, as codified by Ľudovít Štúr in the 1840s, was based largely on Central Slovak dialects spoken at the time. Eastern dialects are considerably different from Central and Western dialects in their phonology, morphology and vocabulary, set apart by a stronger connection to Polish and Rusyn.〔 At the beginning of the 20th century, there was an unsuccessful attempt to standardise an East Slovak, or Slovjak language.〔 Diaspora from the region has contributed to a scattered literary presence of Eastern Slovak dialects. The newspaper ''Slovák v Amerike'' ("The Slovak in America"), founded in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1889, as well as ''Amerikánsko-Slovenské noviny'' (American-Slovak News), founded in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1886, were originally written in the Šariš dialect, using Hungarian orthography, titled ''Szlovjak v Amerike'' and ''Amerikanszko-Szlovenszke Novini''.〔 Today, ''Slovák v Amerike'' is still in business and writes in standard Slovak.〔http://www.slovakvamerike.com/〕 Eastern Slovak was the official language of the Slovak Soviet Republic in 1919. The capital of the new state was Prešov in Eastern Slovakia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eastern Slovak dialects」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
